Weather

Weather is according to the season (requires Sims 2: Seasons expansion pack) of your lot or neighborhood.

There are four seasons including Winter, Spring, Summer, and Autumn.

Many things change with the Seasons expansion pack, including mood during different weather.


Winter

During the winter, it may snow or even hail down onto your lot, covering everything outside with snow. Sims are able to freeze or catch a cold if left out in the snow too long. However, Sim children, toddlers, and babies may be taken away by the Social Worker after you receive a warning that that Sim is freezing. Sims are also able to have snowball fights, make snow angels, and build snowmen. Toddlers can also play in the snow and dogs can eat the snow. (requires Pets expansion pack for animals) On some days, if the snow is too heavy, Sim children or teenagers that attend school may be able to have a "snow day." Also, if you are wanting to grow plants, don't bother because they won't grow during the Winter.

Spring

During the Spring, it may rain, snow a little, and finally have sunshine. Sims are able to splash in puddles, grow plants (it is still cold so beware!), harvesting fruits, and much more! With the Seasons expansion pack, Sims have a new category of clothing "Outerwear." When Sims go out, they will automatically change into Outerwear when it is a cold day.


Summer

During the Summer, Sims may be able to build relationships quicker and easier. Sims can have water balloon fights or splash in the pool. There is a chance of catching heatstroke if your Sim is overheated. Again, Sim children, toddlers, and babies may be taken away by the Social Worker if this happens.


Autumn/Fall

During the fall, the temperature begins to drop and it may begin to snow or rain. During this time, Sims are able to maximize their skills easier and faster than the other seasons. Leaves begin to fall, and of course Sims are able to rake them. After raking them, Sims may jump into the pile of leaves and play with them or even burn the leaves. Sims also begin to change back into Outerwear once outside at the end of Autumn. With this comes along a chance of catching a cold, but not freezing to death.

There are many other new additions with the Sims 2 : Seasons expansion pack, so keep on discovering once you buy the expansion pack.
