Rob Murray Posted January 5, 2003 Share Posted January 5, 2003 If you're playing a QB or self-designed scenario; does it make sense to set the air temperature to extreme cold when it's snowing? I'm asking because sometimes it's so cold that there is no precipitation at all. I'm not a weather expert but living in Canada I have seen this happen. I'm writing this from my igloo . Thanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soddball Posted January 5, 2003 Share Posted January 5, 2003 I made one scenario where I wanted it snowing but I didn't want the rivers frozen - so I had to pick 'cold'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Björn Eriksson Posted January 5, 2003 Share Posted January 5, 2003 I live in Sweden and at least here it rarely snows when the temperature is below -15 C. I can't see why it would be different in other places. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brightblade Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 When it´s extreme cold it won´t be really snowing, but if you add some strong wind ground snow may be swirled around coming pretty close to snowing, at least with regard to limited LOS. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olle Petersson Posted January 6, 2003 Share Posted January 6, 2003 Today we had below -20C and heavy snowfall for a while, most of the day it's been light snowfall. Another possible option to use is fog, especially at dusk or dawn. Cheers Olle EDIT: I'm not sure -20C counts as "extreme" though. Should be below -30C or so, IMO...

tar Posted January 7, 2003 Share Posted January 7, 2003 What does it mean when there is this funny "-" symbol in front of a temperature value? :confused: Tom (in Los Angeles), currently 28C (but it feels like 27C because of the wind ) [ January 09, 2003, 06:44 PM: Message edited by: tar ] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted January 8, 2003 Share Posted January 8, 2003 I grew up in northern Maine (BFC's home state) and believe me, it CAN be bitter cold and snow too. it can also be warm and snow! Hell, most of the 'extreme' weather variants I've seen in the game I've also seen in Maine! Remember, the 1940s saw some of the worst winter weather in a century in Europe. Any awful combination you could concoct would probably be totally appropriate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
