Ritual Description:

Foresee the Weather allows the Caster to gain a brief vision of the local weather patterns and grants them a highly educated guess as to the exact weather during the next few days. It is not normally accurate more than 2-3 days out however some Casters may receive insight as much as 5-7 days ahead of time. The Caster is able to predict approximate times such as about midday or after the sun sets but more precise definitions of time are rarely possible. Unique weather conditions controlled by Plot, such as magical storms or warping energy waves, may also be detected by the Caster at the discretion of the local Plot Team. The amount of information a Caster gains about these non-standard weather disturbances will be likewise determined by the local Plot Team.

Out of Game: The use of the Ritual accurately requires either the Caster or Marshal have access to or previously have checked the local weather forecast. In some instances, depending on the needs of the Plot Team or other magical effects in the Area, a forecast may be incorrect. The Ritual Marshal has the final say on what prediction the Caster receives (if the Caster and Marshal have seen conflicting Forecasts the Ritual Marshal will choose which is accurate or supply a Plot-determined answer).
