New farm, day 28 of spring year one, haven't had a single day of rain.

Is this normal?

You should have rain on Spring 3, Year 1 every single time. Are you positively sure it didn't rain then?

WHAT?

 

[One More Day]

Without mods, rain on day 3 of year 1 is absolutely guaranteed, but in other years, Spring 3 can be dry. Aside from sunny days which are guaranteed for the various festivals, the other guaranteed weather days are Summer 13 and Summer 26, both of which will always have lightning storms every single year


As for the rest of the season, it's certainly possible to have 27 dry days of spring; unusual, but if you play enough times it will happen, and I've definitely had it myself. I've also had a completely dry Fall, 28 days of no rain whatsoever. I don't see it's really much of a problem though.

Yep. I'm on day four of summer and still no rain. I have everything upgraded to steel but my watering can because I have yet to have a rainy day to take off from watering. At this point I'm producing quality sprinklers fast enough to keep up with my coffee harvest, but I've been playing this game for 2,300+ hours and have never gone this long without rain. I'm on xbox if it makes a difference.

That should be impossible. Your platform shouldn't make a difference.

As it was a full season ago, is it at all possible that you just aren't remembering correctly? I mean, it happened before you could even try to upgrade any of your tools let alone the watering can.

Actually I’m experiencing the exact same thing on my Xbox save.
It’s only rained the 3rd, and the two days in summer. Every single day the forecast remains the same.
I’d like some rain please. It’s fall 27 right now year one and no rain.

You would have also gotten two storm days in summer but otherwise you’re unfortunately just unlucky

I had no rain for all of fall, year two, but am now having plenty of rain the following spring. I suspect the RNG is just messing with us.

It is if you want Legend in Year One.

I've seen a ton of people complain about this and I wonder if it's just like a recency and/or confirmation bias? It's really unlikely the RNG for rain was changed, but when people start mentioning it, people will remember their own recent farms without rain.
Just dumb luck I guess
