"No White Christmas in Pokemon Go."

#PokemonGO: From an Express article where they interviewed Matt Slemon, it seems that Niantic will not be causing Snow to occur where Snow would not normally occur, and that weather will remain an AR feature and reflect IRL weather (or as accurately as they have been):Niantic developer Matt Slemon had this to say on the subject, telling The Express: “The most important things for us when it comes to the Weather feature is that we enforce it is an AR feature.“This isn’t something we want to make up, so we don’t want to virtualise snow for instance, in Los Angeles.“We want the weather (in Pokemon Go) to reflect what the weather's like outside.“That being said, if there are Pokemon that might spawn more often in the snow, you might still see them through events showing up because of the event, rather than because it’s snowing outside.”Niantic have confirmed that they will be hosting a new Pokemon Go Christmas event this year, following the success of 2016’s campaign.The development team have revealed that there will be new fun things to do in connection with the upcoming event, with the aim to improve on last year's run. via /r/TheSilphRoad http://ift.tt/2za5Tne
