Weather and Climate

Each season brings new challenges and events. For some, a certain season can be harder than others. 

You can assist a fellow canine in need, or ignore the call for help. 

Canidale's climate is loosely based on Oregon/Northwest Coast of the USA. So the architecture, settings, and weather will be based around that area, with a few exaggerations.

Spring in Canidale brings budding flowers, light winds, and rain, with the season’s temperatures ranging from cool to very warm. April and May are two of the rainiest months of the year, and dogs will expect to experience misty mornings, overcast afternoons, and occasional sunshine in the early months of spring. It is the ideal season for walking outside.

Summer is characterized by bright, sunny, mildly humid days, sometimes accompanied by cool breezes in areas near the water. Canidale's beaches come alive with visitors and bonfires, while inland forests provide plenty of coverage and shade from the heat. While June weather is still relatively mild, temperatures peak in late July to August. Heatwaves aren't unheard of in this town.

The autumn season is chilly and crisp; temperatures start to drop early in September, but dogs likely won't experience cold weather until the end of October. Leaves begin to turn vibrant hues of red and gold, and nights get chillier. Many Canidale residents celebrate Halloween and other autumn events. October and November are also two of the driest months of the year.

Canidale's winter months are cold with less daylight, and the sky is often whitish due to cloudy weather. Temperatures drop constantly throughout December and often stay below freezing for most of January and February, when snowfall can total several inches. Many dogs, especially those without a home, find the cold bursts in this season unbearable. The local winter festivities seem to brighten the mood, though!
