Raining in Thanalan

[Xieveral]

The rain amount is unrealistic but they can't set it on a timer more accurate to Earth conditions. Isn't rain a condition required to catch certain fish? Imagine how furious the fishers would be if they had to wait until summer or the tail end of winter to catch those fish.

I found fog in Sagolii to be vastly more... Odd...

Parts of Thanalan are near the sea which is conducive for foggy conditions and it is entirely possible for a desert to have fog but not fog that persists into the afternoon.
