===Trivia===
*There is a miniature sculpture of the Weathernaught 57X in ''FreeTime''.
*The [[chance card]] for the top leverlevel of the [[Law]] career involves a choice about whether "Weather Machines" should be legal or illegal. The outcome has no effect on Sims' ability to use the Weathernaught 57X.
*The chance card for the University Guest Lecturer (level 6) position in the [[Education#The Sims 2|Education]] career refers to the Sim giving a lecture on the ethics of weather control devices, and being asked to state his/her opinion.
*The Weathernaught 57X also appears in ''[[The Sims Castaway Stories]]'' as the "Ignis Ex-Machina". The player will obtain it at the end of the story from the helicopter pilot. Since "ignis" means "fire" in Latin, the name can be translated as "Fire from the machine", and may be a reference to [[Wikipedia:Deus ex machina|"Deus ex machina"]].
*Although it's a story reward in ''Castaway Stories'', it has 5 uses, just as in ''The Sims 2: Seasons''. It's a very expensive object, which costs about 15,000 [[resources]]. Players can choose clear sky, rain, or hail as the weather, and can also prolong the seasons.
