Currently air temperature does not affects anything (but can be switched to Celsius in options). You can enable frostbites and heatstrokes by decommenting content of game::check_warmth() in game.cpp file.

Weather types and effects

  • Maximal duration is not when the weather is guaranteed to stop; it is simply when the weather is guaranteed to be recalculated. Most weather patterns have "stay the same" as a highly likely transition.
