In my roleplay over the course of the past couple of days I have noticed that more than 50% of the time it is raining in Elwynn Forest and Stormwind City (could very well be a coincidence with my log times, but I highly doubt it). I have visited very little of the rest of the world, but it's not beyond possibility that other zones possess a similar condition.
Now I understand that this may belong in the Bug Reporting forum, however I elected to place it here as I do not have evidence to dismiss the possibility of it being intentional. The city is, after all, named *Storm*wind and perhaps the GM's have decided to give the name a literal meaning.
I will however note that the wowwiki article on Elywnn Forest clearly states:
"Elwynn enjoys consistently good weather, warm and humid with few stormy days. Gentle rain falls just enough to make everything grow full and lush."
I understand that this is wowwiki and it is editable by anyone, but the author does cite the book Lands of Conflict as it's source, and is no doubt quoting the book nearly verbatim. (a common occurrence in wowwiki articles; the majority of which do directly quote other, less accessable and/or more costly lore sources)
That said, while the GM's are likely swarmed with more important ordeals, perhaps consider making Stormwind/Elywnn less rainy whenever you find enough time that it is convenient for you? (if it is even possible) It would be much appreciated, as rain can substantially affect what would be outdoor roleplay. No pressure though, after all we are on freeze, but if it is convenient for you it would be appreciated.
