Predict Weather is a spell that provides an accurate forecast of the weather for a duration of two hours per level from the moment of discharge. This includes knowledge of wind speed, rainfall, cloud cover, and even the amount of particulates in the air. If the weather varies across the spell's area of effect — such as rainfall occurring in one location but not another — the caster will be aware of these distinctions, gaining a detailed understanding of localized weather patterns rather than a singular, uniform forecast.
