Commands/weather

Sets the weather. In Bedrock Edition, it can also output current weather.

Syntax[]

Java Edition

weather (clear|rain|thunder) [<duration>]

Bedrock Edition

weather <clear|rain|thunder> [duration: int]

weather query

Arguments[]

clear|rain|thunder

clear – Set the weather to clear.
rain – Set the weather to rain (or snowfall in cold biomes).
thunder – Set the weather to a thunderstorm (or blizzard in cold biomes).

JE: <duration>: time
BE: duration: int: int

Specifies the time for the specified weather to last.

In Java Edition, if not specified, resets the game's regular weather cycle.

In Bedrock Edition, the time is specified in game ticks. If not specified or 0, the duration defaults to a random value between 300 seconds and 900 seconds.

In Java Edition, it must be a single-precision floating point number suffixed with a unit. Units include:

d: an in-game day, 24000 gameticks;
s: a second, 20 gameticks;
t (default and omitable): a single gametick; the default unit.

The time is set to the closest integer tick after unit conversion. For example. .5d is same as 12000 ticks. It must be mot less than 1 game ticks.
In Bedrock Edition it must be a 32-bit integer number. And it should be between 0 and 1000000 (inclusive).
