Weather in Stories12/4/2021 It’s winter time, and for those of us who don’t live right by the equator, it might be snowing. Honestly, as someone who did live in a country close to the equator for a couple years and therefore did not have any snow, seeing the ground and trees and buildings covered up with little white snowflakes is truly a sight to behold. On the rare occasion that I crawl out of whatever cave I’m currently dwelling in and look out into civilization from my window, it is always a beautiful view, and I find myself appreciating it more and more.
This got me thinking: how often do we pay attention to the weather in stories? Thinking back on stories that I’ve read (though keep in mind I only claim to be an ‘avid reader’), no distinct weather patterns come up. Sure sometimes it rains, or there’s a big storm or the weather is gloomy, but how often does weather play an integral role in a story?
