[[File:Rain.png|left]]Rain occurs in almost all seasons, except winter. It most likely occurs in spring. Rain has several effects on gameplay. Rainfall waters the flowers, plants, and [[Gardening|crops]]; light rain may not cause overwatering, while heavier rains or long rain causes greater effects that may overwater the plants. Rainfall extinguishes outdoor [[fire]]s.

Rain also appears as a feature in ''[[The Sims Castaway Stories]]''. Rain will significantly lower Sims' [[temperature]]. In addition, it will put out fire, and fire cannot be made until the rain is over.

Rain appears in some console games, such as [[The Sims 2: Pets (console)|''The Sims 2: Pets'' for console]] and ''[[The Sims 2: Castaway]]'', although it is much simpler than in PC titles.


In ''The Sims 2: Seasons'', Sims are more likely to do indoor activities while it is raining. Rain also satisfies a [[PlantSim]]’s water [[Motive (PlantSim)|need]] and revives Sims who suffer from heatstroke. [[Servo#The Sims 2|Servos]] are rain-resistant, though they can get short-circuited when splashing in the puddles. [[Cat]]s don’t seem to be afraid of rain. Rain can be made by evil witches’ spell ''Corruptus Locus'', while it can be stopped by good witches’ spell ''Beautificus Locus''. Rain never stops in the [[Fortress of Eternal Darkness]].

Rain is also present in certain console games (such as ''[[The Sims 2: Pets (console)|The Sims 2: Pets]]'' and ''[[The Sims 2: Castaway]]''), though mechanically it functions much more simpler in comparison.


In ''The Sims 3: Seasons'', rain occurs more in spring. When Sims stay outside rain for too long, they'll get a "Soaked" moodlet which is -30 to the mood, but +30 if the Sim is [[mermaid]].{{Vgversion|TS3:IP}} Sim can use an umbrella to prevent this. [[Simbot]] goes outside the rain will get the "Short Out" moodlet and stop functioning,{{Vgversion|TS3:A}} but a [[Plumbot]] is water-resistant and won't become short out{{Vgversion|TS3:ITF}}.
