Casting Time: 10 minutes
Range: Self (5-mile radius)
Components: V S M (Burning incense and bits of earth and wood mixed in water)
Duration: Concentration, up to 8 hours
Classes: Cleric, Druid, Wizard

You take control of the weather within 5 miles of you for the duration. You must be outdoors to cast this spell. Moving to a place where you don't have a clear path to the sky ends the spell early.

It takes 1d4 x 10 minutes for the new conditions to take effect. Once they do so, you can change the conditions again. When the spell ends, the weather gradually returns to normal.

When you change the weather conditions, find a current condition on the following tables and change its stage by one, up or down. When changing the wind, you can change its direction.
