A very relaxing journaling game/exercise! Creating weather forecasts for imaginary regions is easy and quick using the tables, a d6, and a pack of cards.
I actually used a Tarot deck instead of a regular deck to generate ten region names (draw two cards for inspiration), then for the rest of the game ignored majors and page court cards, redrawing them. (Mapping suits for most tarot decks to a regular deck is usually cups to hearts, swords to spades, wands to clubs, and pentacles to diamonds.)
For each region's weather report, I imagined what I might say on the live radio cast to describe each region, and then added a small tag of commentary based on the report and aspects of the region, to keep things fresh.
Note: sometimes some of the weather conditions can clash, so I either added a fantastical excuse for the clash, a boggled reaction, or altered one condition as I saw fit.
I needed a small journaling game to reward myself for a little achievement, and I much appreciated this game.
