It's been raining or overcast in my town all week, and it's bumming me out because I finally pulled enough weeds in someone's weed town to qualify for the gold badge. And Phineas is nowhere to be found. I know this is supposed to be the rainy season in-game, but enough is enough, don't you think?

Any body else getting rained on all week and wishing for a sunny day?
 
Nope. I think that rainy seasons doesn't last long enough in game, but that might be cause 1 I TT and 2 where I live it rains alot so I'm used to having rain for far more than 2 months.
 
Yes! I'm working on several badges and it's impossible to know if I've earned them yet or not because there's no way to track them in game. So I keep waiting and hoping Phineas will show up soon, but with all this rain I just have to keep plugging away because there's no way he'll visit right now.

I'd also like a clear day after the rain so I can make another visit to the Reset Center. I'm still trying to get Don's picture.

I am so with you!! I finally did get one sunny day this week & I was so excited! I ran around my town looking for Phineas and ran right into Saharah. Sigh. Now it's back to being raining/cloudy again and I'm back to waiting for Phineas to show up.

does he not visit if it's raining?

Phineas doesn't come if it's raining, cloudy or if another NPC (like a certain interior selling camel) is in your town.

ahhhh i didn't know this. thanks!
 
It's been raining a lot in my town too. I've been time travelling back and forth in June, and gosh, the rain just never stops. xD I've gotten a few sunny days but yeah, definitely more rain for sure. I'm pretty sure there's supposed to be a lot of rain in June if I'm not mistaken? I thought I remembered reading that somewhere, but don't quote me on that. I don't think I'm close to receiving another badge from Phineas anytime soon, but I've been doing a lot of landscaping in my town and the gyroids are pretty annoying. :') I have no use for them so they just get in my way. It's kind of tedious having to dig them up and sell them at Re-Tail so often.
 
OMG YES! My inventory gets filled faster because I always have to carry an umbrella in there.
 
Just for some help, the rainy season will last until July 5th. On July 6th, your town will enter a dry season where it will hardly rain at all. The “dry season” ends on September 7th. So you may get Phineas more easily during that time of the year.
 
I actually really like the rain but after awhile it does get tedious.
Both my mail towns are currently in winter, I would love rain!
 
I was pretty surprised when the heavy rains started because it's been raining where I live too, and I'm not sure if I'm happy or not that the game is mirroring that xDD It also makes it harder to plan my hybrids because the rain just waters everything

One thing that always cheers me up in game though is that the bonfire(?) pwp I recently built is completely unaffected by all the rain :D I just find that so funny
 
Yeah this was happening to me for a while this month too! It was actually storming for almost a week in my game. Like the actual thunderstorms that make the flashes while you?re inside your house. I though it was really cool, but after a while i missed the sun!
Maybe it?s a June thing?

Does something bad happen if you don't carry an umbrella? I usually give my mayor a hat and let her fend for herself otherwise 🙈

Haha, same. I just can't be bothered to take an umbrella with me every time it rains. I only very rarely do it. My poor mayor just has to do with a soaked straw hat, lol.

I do like rain in game, especially because of the soothing music. But having rain day after day gets a little tedious, especially if you're working on specific hybrids...

you could always try fertilizer or using jacob's ladders to increase the chance of getting the hybrid you want!
unless it's gold roses lol
 
I definitely don't hate the rain in game, it's quite lovely! Thunderstorms are honestly really nice too? ;o;
Like I said before, it just gets tedious when you're working on your town and doing landscaping because of all of the gyroids that spawn imo (the fossils also get in my way too but they're nowhere near as annoying as the gyroids l-lol).
It's pretty relaxing though. I really love the rain music too, it's creates such a lovely and calming mood.
