Sailed into fogbanks and the odd 'wall' of rain on numerous occasions but rarely seen the weather change for the better...unless I script it in.

I've had weather change from No Attack Possible to OK during the course of trying to find a previouse hydrophone contact on the surface. It was wierd, but very welcome.

Found this thread by accident when looking for something else...

In SH5 (not SH3) I was flanking a task force (their 14.5 knots versus mine 15 knots, so it was a looong chase) in bad weather with visibility of max 4000 metres. When i was halfway with the chase, had them all on my port at distance of 3600, fog was almost instantly... gone. I didn't even have time to leave the bridge, not to mention issuing a crash dive order - 4 destroyers and Queen Elisabeth BB opened fire on me from all guns. This was a fast death.

Ouch... I know fog can quickly disappear, but an entire area next to instantly? "Realism" ftw.

I've had weather change on me, but I'm usually sulking over the map view so I never see it happen.

" Have you ever experienced a weather change?"
Yes, a couple of times. 3 or 4 times the heavy fog appeared when I started attacking a convoy....

Fog..? Add a new word to your vocabulary: smoke.
