Thanks for both replies. It seems to be some type of bug which sets in after a campaign extends beyond 2-3 patrols. Initially the weather will change, not routinely but on average 2-4 times per 24 hr cycle. Yes, there are times when a certain weather pattern, say medium fog for instance, will set in for several days, however even when this occurs the cloud cover will vary along with wind speed throughout the day. Once the "bug" sets in however you will get one weather pattern say "light fog, 9 mps wind and clear" for 48 hrs, and it will change only when you save and re-load the game. Hence, if you get bad weather you know that no matter what it will be there for at least 48 hours, sometimes repeating again after a re-load. The game remains then this way until a new campaign is started. The weather never changes again in mid patrol, only when a save/ reload occurs, you can hit the weather icon right after the save is reloaded, and see the new pattern, and watch the wind speed go up or down with time compression. Its a small gripe for as awesome as the game is with TWoS. Just wondering if anyone else has noticed it, and if there might be a way to resolve, and get the "dynamic weather" back. I really enjoyed having say "medium fog" then suddenly while stalking a convoy have the fog lift, or the other possible, and realistic scenarios.

Happy hunting!
