In ''Persona 4'', the 4 types of weather are sunny, cloudy, rain, and thunder. The weather in Inaba ties into the plot with the [[TV World]] and also the [[Calendar]] system. All dungeon deadlines are based on when there will be fog in Inaba. The protagonist can check the weather forecast by using the TV at the [[Dojima Residence]]. Rain and thunder are considered poor weather and while some activities will be unavailable on those days, other activities get bonuses due to poor weather such as the beef bowl challenge at [[Central_Shopping_District#Chinese_Diner_Aiya|Aiya]]. Additionally, there are various Shadows with rain in their name that only spawn in the TV World when it's raining in reality.
