Weather weave allows the practictioner to call any manner of weather, even that which is out of season. The caster can bend the very elements to their will, ordering clouds, rain, and wind to do their bidding. Snow can be brought in mid-summer, tropic breezes in the dead of winter. During the duration of the spell the caster is unaffected by the weather. They can, if they so wish, stand naked in a howling blizzard. Hurricanes and tornados can be summoned forth and directed against targets on land or sea. (Note: if at sea, while the caster is protected, any ship they might be on is NOT.)
The time it takes to raise weather is one stage of wind, cloud and Temperature every turn. The practictioner can affect all three or just one of the three elements of weather. From moderate to strong, strong to gale, etc. Tornados cannot be produced in less than a thunderstorm, hurricanes in, well, hurricane forces winds. The following chart shows the stages of weather change:
