I am the only one that sees sandstorms inside the city of Ul'dah? like 2 days ago, I zoned in the city while there was a sandstorm outside, and it kept going while I was inside (not between the walls but when I got in the city itself). it did not last long so maybe it was just until it loaded the "sunny" weather, but it was still going for a bit, while it wasn't as storng as it was outside, there was weather effect.
