Is there a way to predict SL Weather?

I'd like to hold an event at a time when my hilltop residence isn't covered in clouds..

We have weather?

There is yet to be a weather system made in SL that will control the linden clouds, let alone predict them. Which is a shame really. I would find it rather mindblowing to have a full-blown weather system in SL.

Can't be hard since we don't have any rainy days , or cloudy days.

Just nice and sunny all the year.

You know I would be great at giving a weather report for SL. Just check my references...
