Our campaign is starting in the first week of Rova (equivalent to our September). The weather in Westcrown is typically hot and humid throughout the summer. Thunderstorms are common in spring and fall, and although the temperature does drop during the winter, snow is rare and precipitation is more commonly rain. The weather in late Arodius into Rova this year (4608 A.R.) has been unseasonably cold (though still warm by our Canadian standards).
