'''[[SimNation]]''' is the fictional country in which all ''[[The Sims (series)|Sims]]'' games take place. SimNation is geographically diverse, featuring coastal areas, mountains, deserts, grassy plains, and other unique regions. SimNation has its own currency - the [[Simoleon]] (§), and its own national animal - the [[Llama]]. The vast majority of residents in SimNation are [[Sims]], though there are other sentient species, as well as wild animals (skunks, raccoons, bears, penguins and fish, to name a few) and [[pet]]s. |

'''[[Weather]]''' is a game feature, first introduced in ''[[The Sims 2: Seasons]]''. Weather includes [[precipitation]] - rain, snow, and hail, and air temperature. The likelihood of different precipitation types or temperatures depends on the current season on the lot being played. |

Mention is made numerous times in-game to locations outside SimNation, both real ([[Champs Les Sims|France]], [[Shang Simla|China]], and [[Al Simhara|Egypt]]), as well as fictional (The 'Old Country'). Therefore, it is very likely that SimNation is meant to exist on Earth, rather than on a fictional planet. |

Weather has an impact on the everyday lives of Sims. Heavy rain waters outdoor plants, and can spawn potentially dangerous [[lightning]]. Hot sunny days in the summer can cause Sims to more easily overheat. Heavy snow can cancel school for child and teen Sims. Cold wintertime air can cause Sims to freeze if outside for too long. |

Weather is a feature in ''[[The Sims 3 (Wii)|The Sims 3 for Wii]]'', but has not yet been introduced as a feature in ''[[The Sims 3]]''. Limited weather effects were made available through the [[Fog Emitter]] item in ''[[The Sims 3: Late Night]]'' expansion pack. |

Weather is a game feature, first introduced in The Sims 2: Seasons. Weather includes precipitation - rain, snow, and hail, and air temperature. The likelihood of different precipitation types or temperatures depends on the current season on the lot being played.
Weather has an impact on the everyday lives of Sims. Heavy rain waters outdoor plants, and can spawn potentially dangerous lightning. Hot sunny days in the summer can cause Sims to more easily overheat. Heavy snow can cancel school for child and teen Sims. Cold wintertime air can cause Sims to freeze if outside for too long.
Weather is a feature in The Sims 3 for Wii, but has not yet been introduced as a feature in The Sims 3. Limited weather effects were made available through the Fog Emitter item in The Sims 3: Late Night expansion pack.
