I went and looked at the weather tab for each ballpark and was surprised by the results. Ebbets Field only has a 2% chance of rain in April and a 1% chance in May. Anyone who's lived in the Mid-Atlantic or the Northeast knows that's a bit of wishful thinking. Average temperature for July and August is set for 76! June is 69! These are all day games, of course, these guys should be roasting out there. I poked around the rest of the league and the highest I saw in either category was an average temperature of 80 in St Louis in July and a 5% chance of rain in April in Pittsburgh.

I don't remember changing anything so I think these are the default settings. Any ideas? I can change each one, but I don't want to screw anything up either. If these are historically accurate and change each year, maybe 1930 was chilly and dry. I'm just trying to get some opinions, thanks!
I just discovered that, apparently, the climate for Madrid, Spain, is being used for Brooklyn, and if you compare Brooklyn's rain percentages with the Yankees and Giants, you'll notice that they're significantly different despite being literally in the same city.

I also posted this in the "typos" part of the bugs forum.
