🌪️🌑 WILD WEATHER — extreme weather for The Sims 4
Wild Weather brings real, dangerous weather to The Sims 4 Seasons: tornadoes, blizzards, snow days, solar eclipses, power outages, spring allergies, storm-fear moodlets — and even a full storm-chasing career.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🤧 SEASONAL ALLERGIES (NEW!)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
• Some Sims are allergy-prone — every SPRING they come down with "Itchy & Sneezy" whenever they're outdoors. Head inside and it eases off.
• Take Allergy Medicine (a Sim action) for a few sneeze-free hours of relief.
• Click your Sim → Wild Weather → Add / Remove Seasonal Allergies to decide who's affected, and around 4% of townies get it naturally.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🎥 METEOROLOGIST CAREER
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
• A fully custom 10-level career — read the skies for a living.
• At level 6 it BRANCHES into two paths: 📺 TV Weather Personality (Morning Weather Anchor → National Weather Icon) or 🌪️ Storm Chaser (Field Storm Chaser → Legendary Storm Chaser).
• A daily "Study the Forecast" task, progressive pay, and custom career art. Just find it under "Find a Job" on the phone.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🌑 SOLAR ECLIPSES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
• A rare astronomical event — the sky goes dark at midday and the streetlights flicker on.
• Any Sim caught outside earns the awe-struck "Witnessed a Solar Eclipse" moodlet; use "Watch the Eclipse" to head out and gaze up (but don't stare too hard, or it's "Seeing Spots"!).
• Happens on its own about once a Sim-year, or summon one whenever you like.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
😱 FEAR & REACTION MOODLETS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
• Dread that builds and then pays off. A warning leaves Sims Uneasy; when the storm hits, anyone caught outside is downright Scared (or Freezing in a blizzard).
• Ride it out and everyone earns a proud reward — "Weathered the Storm" for tornadoes, "Braved the Blizzard" for winter — each with its own custom moodlet art.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🌪️ TORNADOES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
• Real severe storms — dark skies, howling wind, thunder, lightning & blowing debris.
• A calm "Tornado Watch" gives you a few hours to prepare, then an URGENT siren sounds (with the game's alert sting) when the tornado strikes.
• Spawn rarely and naturally in spring & summer — or summon one whenever you want.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
❄️ BLIZZARDS & SNOW DAYS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
• BLIZZARDS — freezing whiteout storms. Sims caught outside get dangerously cold and flee for safety, and a blizzard can knock the power out for a day or two.
• SNOW DAYS — softer, cozier snow that CANCELS SCHOOL. Kids and teens stay home while the adults still head to work.
• Both arrive naturally in winter (rare), or on command.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🏃 PREP & SHELTER
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
• Secure Outdoor Items — send your Sim jogging around the yard to storm-proof your things; anything secured rides out the storm undamaged.
• Take Shelter — one click rallies the whole household indoors; toddlers & infants get whisked safely inside.
• When a tornado hits, the family auto-heads in on its own; anyone stuck outside flees for cover.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
💥 DAMAGE, REPAIR & INSURANCE
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
• Storms batter your outdoor furniture over the course of the event.
• Click any damaged item → your Sim walks over, cleans it up, and levels the Handiness skill.
• STORM INSURANCE — pay a weekly premium, then after a disaster file a claim (small deductible) to AUTO-REPAIR everything at once and collect a payout. No insurance? You fix it yourself. Cancel any time.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
🔌 POWER OUTAGES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
• Storms and blizzards can cut the power for a sim-day or two, with a "repair crew is on the way" notification before it comes back on its own.
• On Eco Lifestyle lots, appliances lose power too — not just the lights.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
📱 CHECK THE FORECAST
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
• Click your Sim → Wild Weather → Check Forecast for a 7-day outlook: conditions, temperature, precipitation, plus clear flags for tornado-risk and blizzard days.
• All the click-Sim actions are tucked neatly under their own "Wild Weather" pie-menu submenu.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
♿ ACCESSIBILITY & CONTROLS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
• Turn off any weather type you don't want and it stays off across every save — keep the blizzards and eclipses but switch tornadoes fully OFF (great if severe storms aren't your thing).
• Light flickering during outages can be fully DISABLED for photosensitivity, and that setting sticks too.
