Proposal: It was a dark and stormy night

11-0. Reaches quorum (and them some). ~Chronos.

Add a dynastic rule, entitled Weather, as follows:

The weather, at any given date time, will be the weather for [CITY] for the same date and time as reported at the website weather.com.  The sunrise and sunset on any given date will occur on at the times stated at weather.com for [CITY] on that date.

If the Narrator casts a vote on this proposal and specifies, in the post containing the vote, the name of a city for which weather forecasts and reports are available at weather.com, then subsitute that city for the [CITY] text in the rule.  If the Narrator does not do so, then [CITY] shall be London, United Kingdom.

London or Greenwich works particularly well because UTC is their local time anyway.  It’d be off if sunset was occurring around noon.

Well, technically, sunrise and sunset would occur at the time stated but shifted to Blognomic time.  In other words, if it was sunrise at 6:42am in Paris, Texas, then at 6:42am Blognomic time, it would be sunrise.
