What I see: I can play the game for many hours at a time without ever seeing a rainstorm, or snow or thunder. I was under the impression that these ought to occur every 2-4 hours of gameplay, on average. What I expected to see: The frequency at which it rains should be approximately the same whether you sleep regularly in beds (as I do) or not. Comments/Explanation/Speculation: Sleeping in a bed, which I do regularly, appears to reset the weather counter. This is fine by me /when it's raining at the time/, because it's a handy way to turn unwanted weather off in survival mode, but I don't think it should reset the counter if it's /not/ raining at the time, because then you can play for days on end without ever seeing it rain. |

I was going to report this as a bug myself in 1.17 as it never rains for 100 days straight until I saw that this was resolved as works as intended. In other worlds it rains at a normal amount, but very rarely in a specific world. I know it's been a decade but I'm just pointing out I get this problem in one of my worlds.

To me, for some reason, thunderstorms happen a lot more often than rain. |

rainTime: 40125 -> Next rain in 1,67 minecraft days = 33 minutes earth time (I don't know why Tails wanted the level.dat...) |

I play SSP, no mods, and what Kumasasa sees is definitely /not/ what I see. Sleeping reliably causes the rain fade-out animation to play, though it does take several seconds for the rain to stop completely. I do see rain sometimes, but it is rare, and usually only occurs when I've been underground for a considerable time without sleeping. To try to quantify, I'd estimate I can easily go 12 hours of gameplay without once seeing it rain, maybe 24? It's hard to be more accurate because that's quite a few sessions of play over several days between each rain shower. I can often play an entire weekly test release without once encountering rain before I replace it with the next weekly. A long mining session underground (and hence, if my speculation is correct no resets of the weather counter) is about the only thing that breaks the drought. |

Do you have any mods installed? |
