I’m going to make a new global pressure/wind model, but the current one is exposed to gameplay. May end up simulating a snapshot per month and backwards chaining it as input for another climate model pass. Also simulation of cold/warm ocean currents and special weather patterns like physically correct monsoon/hurricane land fall.

BTW Turns out tornadoes are a super rare thing as you need very specific topology at the right latitude to even have them. Likely why nearly all occur in a tiny section of North America on Earth.

@thendrix In the Southern Hemisphere they rotate in the opposite direction and are known as something else.

No, 75%in the US and 80% in North America. It’s due to the placement of the Rockies and the Gulf of Mexico with a warm ocean current among other things. It has nothing to do with the Coriolis effect.
