📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 386 endorsements and nearly 9k downloads, so it's got a solid following.
- Seasons actually change with the game calendar, so you get real variety instead of the same old weather every playthrough.
- Screenshots are without ENB, meaning the visuals are achievable for most players without extra graphics mods.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2020, so it might be outdated for newer Skyrim versions or mod setups, and the author points to an 'Extended' version that may be the better bet.
- The description is cut off mid-sentence about fog, so you're not getting the full feature list from the original page.
- As a weather mod, it could conflict with other weather or lighting overhauls, so you'll need to pick and choose your mods carefully.
For Skyrim players who want a more authentic Scandinavian atmosphere with seasonal weather changes and realistic skies. If you're tired of the vanilla weather and want something that feels fresh every season, this is for you. Skip if you prefer fantasy-style weather or if you're already using a comprehensive weather overhaul that you don't want to replace.
