It might seem hard to imagine, but for four long years, The Sims 4 lacked seasons, weather variations, and holidays. However, in 2018, this all changed with the release of the Seasons expansion pack, which has since been widely regarded as an indispensable addition to The Sims 4. If you’re new to the universe of The Sims 4, Seasons should be the first expansion pack you purchase.
As a dedicated gamer, I’ve got to say, Seasons may not be bursting at the seams with activities, but it brings two game-changing additions that have become indispensable: dynamic weather systems, where each world has its own distinct climate, and the option to create our own holidays. Let me delve a bit deeper into the weather side of things first. In this game, I’m no longer just exploring static landscapes; I’m experiencing living, breathing worlds with ever-changing skies and temperatures that make each adventure feel fresh and exciting!

Basic Sims 4 weather tips
When playing The Sims 4, remember that weather can have severe impacts if not managed properly. Overly hot or cold conditions could lead to the death of your sims – for instance, neglecting to wear a coat during a blizzard may result in freezing, while excessive exercise or proximity to a fire during extreme heat might cause overheating (I’ve actually witnessed a sim perish due to a lit fireplace during a heatwave). Similarly, spending too long outside during a storm could lead to being struck by lightning. Therefore, be mindful and cautious.
In addition to dressing and acting suitably for varying weather conditions, there are rewards for lifetime aspirations that can aid your characters in coping with these climatic influences. These include acclimation bonuses for hot and cold weather (500 points each), which enable your sim to experience the effects of intense temperatures without being at risk from them. You can go a step further with the Heatproof and Iceproof perks (2000 points apiece), which eliminate these issues altogether. The Storm Chaser perk (1000 points) transforms fear of thunderstorms into enjoyment, but this comes with an increased chance of being struck by lightning. However, instead of causing harm, it will simply invigorate your sim when it occurs.
How to change the weather in The Sims 4
Thankfully, you don’t have to rely on the game’s weather conditions since you can control local weather with Dr. June’s Weather Control Device. You can purchase this device for 1500 simoleons in build mode. Once placed in your home, simply click the device and select your preferred weather.
How to use cheats and mods with Sims 4 weather
In an unexpected turn of events, The Sims 4 doesn’t have functioning weather cheats anymore – they used to be accessible through console commands, but for unknown reasons, they no longer function. However, if you’re playing on PC, you can bring back these cheats using a mod for The Sims 4, which is the widely recognized MC Command Center. This mod offers numerous tools to customize your game world in detail. After installing and activating the mod, simply click on any mailbox, choose the MC Cheats option to open the MCCC menu, then select Seasons for all your weather-related options.
Sims 4 Worlds and Climates
In the same vein as our planet Earth, every region within The Sims 4 features distinct climates and temperature ranges – some areas are scorching hot, others frigid cold, while some encompass the entire spectrum of weather conditions. Here’s a breakdown of the climate in each world of The Sims 4:
1. Oasis Springs: A sun-kissed paradise with year-round warmth and plenty of sunshine.
2. San Myshuno: A bustling metropolis known for its diverse weather, from warm summers to chilly winters, and even the occasional thunderstorm.
3. Newcrest: A suburban haven that boasts a moderate climate with mild seasons, making it an ideal place to live all year round.
4. Forgotten Hollow: A mystical region shrouded in fog and mist, with cool temperatures that can be quite bracing at times.
5. Strangetown: An eerie location where the weather is unpredictable and often bizarre, with everything from heatwaves to snowstorms happening throughout the year.

In this arid region, the weather remains bone-dry all year long without ever dropping below freezing temperatures; beware of scorching summer heatwaves.
Newcrest
Base game
As a gamer immersed in the virtual landscape of Newcrest, I’ve come to appreciate its seasonal diversity. Summers are warm and wet, while winters bring a crisp chill that makes you grab an extra blanket. Occasionally, the temperature can spike or plummet, adding an element of unpredictability to this vibrant world.

Brindleton Bay
Cats & Dogs
In my corner of the world where I live with my beloved pets, we enjoy a wide variety of weather conditions, from scorching heat to cool, crisp winters. Yet, compared to other areas sharing similar climates, our region tends to steer clear of those stormy days that can be so unsettling. It’s as if Mother Nature has crafted our little haven with a calmer, gentler touch.

In this arid area, temperatures tend to be high throughout most of the year, with especially scorching summers, while it may experience occasional rain showers during its relatively mild winters.
Sulani
Island Living
Year-round warmth characterizes this region that draws inspiration from the Pacific, making it one of the rare places on Earth where monsoons occur – essentially, these are intense rainstorms similar to thunderstorms. However, much like Del Sol Valley, it does not experience any abnormally high temperatures.

At Glimmerbrook, the summers are pleasantly gentle, while the winters bring a touch of frost, making it an enchanting location to explore during any season.

Evergreen Harbor

In comparison to cities in the Pacific Northwest United States such as Portland, Evergreen Harbor boasts a mild climate, characterized by pleasant summers and chilly winters. However, it’s worth noting that this region is not prone to severe temperature fluctuations or adverse weather conditions.

It’s cold and snowy year-round in this mountain town, with frequent blizzards during the winter.
Henford-on-Bagley
Cottage Living
In this quaint town that mimics the English countryside, you’ll find it subject to the full range of seasonal changes – from the stormy downpours during summer to the winter’s blanket of snow. However, drastic fluctuations in temperature are seldom encountered here.

In this region bordering the Mediterranean, the climate tends to be mild and stable, with frequent breezes and intermittent heavy showers.
Moonwood Mill
Werewolves
In this town reminiscent of Twilight, the weather remains mild throughout all seasons except for winter, when it transforms into a wintry landscape with snowfall and chilly temperatures.
Copperdale
High School Years
In contrast to many other towns, Copperdale doesn’t experience a wide variation in temperatures, but it is notably one of the stormier locations within the worlds of The Sims 4, meaning you can expect frequent rainfall there.
San Sequoia
Growing Together
In The Sims 4, the depiction of the San Francisco Bay Area is generally mild and rarely becomes extremely hot, while winters are quite gentle and seldom involve snowfall. It’s important to note that rain showers can be expected throughout the year in this virtual representation.

In this arid-climate area, temperatures remain moderate throughout all seasons, while winter brings some snowfall and the remainder of the year receives regular rain.
