Thunder and Lightning! Plus Wear Gray exclusives...



Experience dramatic bright lightning and deep rumbles of thunder on your SL land. 'Weather! or not?' have created an intuitive menu controlled ' Thunder n' Lightning System' for your high voltage atmospheric pleasure. You can almost smell the ozone!

This system has some special features you won't find in others... it's very customizable so you can get the effects you want. You can control the localized placement of thunder sound repeaters, the volume of sound, the range of area in which the lightning strikes occur, and how often they occur. It's also got an interactive menu system that makes configuring easy, and cleanup when you want to delete the sysem is very simple.

We've been working on this one for months perfecting it! We think you'll be impressed, and especially enjoy the range and quality of the thunder sounds that are triggered by the lightning flashes. Fang brought his audio engineer skills to the forefront on that. In addition, we have optimized the scripting control for fasted response and lowest lag.

Also! We have a couple exclusive releases at the moment for the Wear Gray fundraiser for Brain Tumor Research. We made the stage build for the event, and are selling it 100% donation, as well as an exclusive coloring of the Silver Mediallion Jewelry set in black!

There is a whole sim full of shopping plus auctions and other events happening for this worthy cause - it's going on now until the 25th of September, go check it out :) Our booth in right by the landing point and the stage.

Dubious Fun with the Dangerous Diving Board


Someone nailed this diving board together years ago and nobody has taken it down yet...


...so you and your friends can still risk life and limb like you do every year down at the old watering hole.  Climb on it, hang off of the end, sunbath on top, peer over the edge, pretend you are a hero, lean against it and look cool, suspend yourself upside down from the side... heck, you can even dive off the thing if you are really brave enough! There are ten different poses to choose from in the interactive menu, and you can get five avatars on it all at the same time!

This is a collaborative effort between the building skills of Weather! or not? and the posing imagination of HopScotch. It's only six prims, including the shadow, and features all original sculpting and pose work you won't find anywhere else. 

Get yours in-world at the Weather! or not? Main Store. Down by the water you'll find one already  rezzed to take a look at. Our collaborative partner, HopScotch, also has them for sale!

New colors of some of your favorites...


From Weather! or not? this week: low-prim, unique sculpts that we made ourselves and textures with lots of character - those are some of the highlights you'll find in our great new set of releases!


We've gone through some of our most popular and complimented items and made a two new sets of color offerings. In addition to the original pale brown wooden line, we now have a set of weathered white and black tarred builds for your landscaping and decorating needs.


Designed to create two difference atmospheres, the light colored set would be perfect for weddings or celebrations, whereas the dark set is custom built with the spooky and neglected in mind. Of course, it's your creativity to use them however you like!


Have you got some big Halloween plans in the works for this year, or do you just crave a darker atmosphere? You will not be disappointed by the black tar line for creating a creepy environment... These textures are exclusives and carefully designed to add some extra sophistication and depth to the sculpted designs.


Out now at the Weather! or not? Main Store location!  You'll find examples of these items rezzed around the store property if you'd like to check them out in person. Or, you can order them directly from Xstreet.


Both color/textures lines include a Gazebo, two varieties of fences, and a Creaky Old Rocking Chair. Keep an eye out for more offerings in these colors in the future.

Enjoy! - Further Monday and Fang Roffo

A Very Clever Disgiuse -branch -R AO
A Very Clever Disgiuse -mask -large

Weather! or not? at Operation Squeegee

We have quite eclectic set of offerings for you this week, all of them to be found at OPERATION SQUEEGEE HEADQUARTERS!

First off we have the events stage itself! This is a custom creation by Fang specifically made for OpSquee but suited for all sorts of outdoor events and locations. It features sturdy, rustic wooden construction and an unusual design making it perfect for those tricky corner locations! Of course, we always love to keep our prim count down, so the whole stage including ivy covering, stairs, handrails, and beams is only 44 prims. Made with our own unique sculpts so you'll never find another like it in design.



Then we have the lantern strings... based on one of our most popular items, this is an exclusive multi-color combination of orchid, mint, and bluegrey. Only 4 prims for the whole strand of lights, the package also features several choices in style - straight or curved in perfect condition or with a bit of aged and tattered character added.


Ok, now for something *completely different*! From the twisted minds of Fang and Further - we present... the Gloop avatar set:


... comes in both "Crude" and "Refined" versions. Both include giant spreading oily footprints, sloshing sounds when walking, and a comical AO. Crude is bigger, badder, and just plain awful, where Refined has spiffed itself up a bit with a top hat, tie, spectacles, and even a carnation. Still, I don't think this avi is gonna win any modeling pageants! Still, what a look, eh?

So, for those of you who DO want to win beauty pageants, we have a lovely new design of jewelry! The first of its type, the Silver Medallion Pendant and Earrings are offered here with blue stones to remind you of the oceans.


Please visit Operation Squeegee to find our newest batch of creations and help support the National Wildlife Federation's Oil Spill Recovery Fund. All of our items are 100% Donation!
