The /weather command lets you force, check, or reset weather in your world. Unlike natural biome cycles (rain in Emerald Grove, snow in Borea), it overrides everything for custom atmospheres—ideal for events, screenshots, or farming.
Key Subcommands:
- Set: Lock in a weather type (e.g., permanent rain).
- get: Check current forecasted weather.
- reset: Revert to biome-default cycles.
Requires admin permissions (easy fix :). Works in single-player and multiplayer servers.
