Is this normal (weather forecast)?

Qh59mFp.png
As you can see in the calendar, all days during summer have a "Partially Cloudy" weather forecast. Is this normal or am I having a bug? Why are there no days with "Clear Skies" even though it's summer? I have had this same forecast in Windenburg, Brindleton Bay and now Willow Creek. I haven't tested Oasis Springs yet, so I'm not sure if only hot-looking worlds can have clear skies. Also, I haven't played with other seasons yet, as I chose to start in summer, so I'm not sure if this happens with other seasons too.

    I am not even sure whether the forecast show works properly or not. I was in winter and it showed nearly all days partly/cloudy when it was snowy :neutral:

    Sounds like real life! You can rarely trust the weather reports! :D

    In seriousness though, I'm not sure if this is a bug or not. Maybe your sims just have a bad summer. Must be the UK! :D

    I think you have to watch the weather forecast on TV for the next week’s forecast to show up on the calendar?

    Didn’t they say it varies depending on which neighborhood you’re in?

    Yes, but I've tried three worlds (Windenburg, Brindleton Bay and Willow Creek) and in all of them I'm having this same forecast. Also, now that I have played some sim days, the forecast for the beginning of autumn is also the same (partially cloudy).

    So, I found out that this problem is caused by some mod. I've created a new test save in Willow Creek without mods and the weather forescast was normal (different forecasts in the calendar), then I put my mods back in and the forecast went back to "Partially Cloud" every day. I just have to find out which mod is causing this.

    This. Thunderstorm after thunderstorm, but I like it. My forecast is just like yours though... It's always cloudy, and I'm still in the summer season.

    It very well could be a bug. My weather forecasts don't vary much...nothing but Windy in Windenburg for the Fall, nothing but Thunderstorms in Willow Creek.

    I found out what mod was causing this. It was More Buyable Venues by LittleMsSam, I had the outdated version and I forgot to update it.

    I'm wondering if it randomizes. For most of my summer it was thunderstorms and one day was partially cloudy

    I wish I had that mod installed so that I knew it was it causing this bug. But I don't have it, and I'm having this very same bug after REPAIRING the game on origin (the calendar was bugged and didn't let me plan events on the day I wanted to plan them).
