I know this isn't new news, but I don't think we've had a topic about it.

We just added weather to all the zones in the last build. If you are not seeing it yet, just give it some time to show up.

I'm so thrilled that they've added weather to Pandaria. It seems like such an obvious thing to have, but weather has felt so lacking in the past few expansions. I really missed the storms you could run into in the old world.

I've just experienced my first taste of Pandarian weather in beta, and it's wonderful!

It's raining in Valley of the Four Winds. Not only do we get the customary rain effect, but the sky itself has a storm version. There's dark grey clouds and lightning, it's amazing! I tried to get a decent lightning shot, but we all know how difficult that is. The actual lightning is very impressive, I just caught one as it was fading.





Just had to share.

Very cool! Yay for more rainy zones to idle in. <3

There was a thunderstorm in Half Hill this morning. I had to stop and soak it in

Have weather effects always been exclusive to sub-zones, instead of zones? Was a bit jarring to have the rain in just Half Hill, and nowhere around it.

Depends on the zone, I think. STV used to have rain everywhere, ditto Duskwood.

Valley of the Four Winds is my favorite new zone due to the sky. It feels like a storm is about to roll in and i LOVE that

I miss raiding Zul'Gurub and it would storm so bad that our raid would wait until it passed because some people lagged from it. Was a great time to just sit around and watch the storm. Best weather effects they had. Looks like the Pandaria zones have the same storms so I'm happy.

OMG yes, I love ZG rain. <3 It still rains in there, I believe!

Oh my goodness YES! I've missed weather so much, I absolutely love it when it storms.

Wonderfull I can be depressed by rain outside my window and in WoW again JK nice to see it back and I don't get why they did not do it in other expacks. I mean no snowstorms in WOTLK? Just seems odd.
