I'm getting back into world crafting in Premium, learning the odds and ends of the new menus.  I'm testing an ocean embark; the ocean itself is Terrifying and the immediate landmass is Joyous.  There is a stretch of sand which I believe counts as part of the ocean biome.  I'm nearly a month in, watching the Dwarves mill about on the surface and fight off the occasional zombie albatross, but there has not been any rain or cloud.  Is it possible for evil weather to spawn only rarely?  Like a couple times per year, or even not at all.  I have never known evil weather to take this long to make an appearance in Classic.  Any insight is appreciated.

IIRC, evil biomes caused by necromancer and demon influence don't have evil weather, just dead vegetation. Don't know if you'd be getting zombie albatrosses if you were in one of those, though.

Not all evil biomes have rain or fog... some just have re-animation, and the sand/rock beach is part of the ocean biome while the areas with vegetation are part of the land biome. Test it by butchering something in the sand.

And as a warning, beware the potential for undead orca, whales, etc... they are sneaky bastards.
