TY DD for your help

I see what you are getting at but at the moment its up to the players imagination is it night or perhaps you are in the Pacific so imagine a heavy rainstorm its your call as they both play the same.
If you like take the chart DD has given you & each time you play look at it to decide possible weathers or roll a die to decide for you.
The only thing I would say moonless night with no civilisation nearby (as in city lights) is pitch black even in the open range should be very low.
