HEAVY/STORMY weather will now impact your ship in a few ways.

First, crew members have a chance to experience some maneuvers if they're out on the deck during a storm.
Second, the storm can cause your ship to misbehave. Things such as, steering your ship in a different direction. Increasing the time it takes to reach a new area.
Third, enemy ships are also more dangerous in a storm. You will face ships potentially out of your league and more difficult ships more often.

Before setting sail, ask the handler about WEATHER to get an idea of which oceans to steer clear of or toward!

The dock handler says, "Based on recent weather reports, here is what the ocean is lookin' like as of right now."
