Apocalyptic Weather

An unlikely scenario using my random generator.

I have just posted my campaign’s random weather generator script (also linked at the top of the page). Written in Perl CGI, the script allows users to specify a climate region (e.g., arctic, tropical), season (winter, spring), and month within season, before choosing whether to download the results as a semi-colon delimited text file or just print the results to the screen. Those results will include thirty days of weather generated by my original code partly based on the rules in Kim Mohan’s Wilderness Survival Guide (TSR, 1986). While similar results could be achieved by rolling dice, I have found this script to be a wonderful time-saver.
