If the temperature is balmy or hotter, the duration of the spell will be doubled in areas of thick vegetation. The spell is always halved in arid environments devoid of grass and thick vegetation.
In chilly weather, the precipitation will fall as sleet. In colder conditions (frosty and below), precipitation will fall as snow — in which case the duration of the spell is doubled, but the effects are halved (or diminished until the snow is allowed to melt).
If precipitation is combined with a sustained fire-based spell, such as a wall of fire, a fog which is double the area of effect will be formed. If combined with a sustained cold-based spell, such as an ice storm, then a blizzard twice the ordinary strength of the spell effect will be formed, and the amount of snowy precipitation doubled.
