It doesn't rain in Eastern Thanalan

[hqdm]

I've personally sat through fog & showers 24h with every emote, and have seen 12pm to 8am rain 3 times, 4pm-12am rain once (catching it at 10pm to no avail, although not every emote tried).
The fog rumor is based off some mispost on reddit, which was transcribed to a spreadsheet by a guy who thinks 12pm = midnight.

I'd still chalk it up to horrible rng, or at least showers being more heavily weighted in the weather tables for East Thanalan. We've sat through at least 11 separate instances of showers since patch, some back-to-back, which either means that there's a slim chance the 12am rain will carry through to 8am, or that a weather roll is independent of the previous session, and it "changes" to the same weather through coincidence.

I was at 017 just before 8am with fog, spammed /lookout from just before to after 8am. I got targeted (like usual) but then nothing, then the weather changed.

I don't understand what you're trying to say? The weather changes at 8am/4pm/12am, that's a known.

I thought you meant that 12am weather might work at exactly 8am, but actually that's just what I thought before trying it.
