Sure I could describe it, if I could see it. If it's visible, I can put it into words. That's what builders DO, afterall.

But the only people who would be remotely interested in actual and precise weather patterns in a text-based fantasy game would be professional navigators, tower control operators, and sea captains where charting out this kind of thing can mean the difference between smooth sailing and crashing into a glacier.

Since I don't know of many (any) games that require that kind of detail, I feel the exercise is not only pointless, but impossible given the fact that I am not a navigator, sea captain, or tower control operator, and have no idea how to read it.

But if I could, I'd have no trouble at all putting it into a nice neat package of text.
