What Happens to Washing When it Rains?

Basically, what it says on the tin

Has anyone tried to see if anything special or realistic happens? I'll be a little annoyed if it didn't get wet again

Nothing happens to it , as daft as it is washing still dries out when hung outside on the line in rainstorms

I know it might sound like nitpicking but really they should think more about these little details. That is why we play the game.

When they take shortcuts or try and save work for themselves it just hurts the game in the long run.

But then again there is a lot going on in the game now so I suppse they can't implement everything that they could put in.

I guess to make the laundry correspond with the weather they'd have to rework whatever the programming is already in place. Laundry previously dried out at a set amount of time but now they'd have to have it take into account whether it's raining or dry and if the clothes were almost dry and it started raining then there'd have to be some mechnaism in the animation to reset the wet stage I guess and then take into account how long the rain lasts before restarting the drying cycle?

Probably more trouble then it is worth from their persepective.
