Clear - Residents mostly stay outside in this weather, Animals may be let outside.

Cloudy - Fewer residents go outside, animals can be led outside and crops grow slower in this type of weather

Drizzle - Residents will stay inside during this type of weather, animals can get sick in this kind of weather if they are let out.

Rainy - Residents will stay inside during rainy days, Animals will get sick if they stay outside for to long, you don't have to water your crops in this weather.

Snowy - Few residents are out and about on snowy days, crops grow slower and animals can be let out but only for a short period if you do not want them to get sick
