1. Is this compatible with Climates of Tamriel or other huge weather mod? No, and likely it would not be necessary to use this in addition to those mods, since surely the author of those mods would have addressed this. This mod does work perfectly well with Realistic Lighting Overhaul's weather plugins though. Overwriting any weather mods changes with this mod will only mean Winterhold will use that mod's settings for the weather in whole Dawnstar to Winterhold snowy region, instead of that mod's settings for Winterhold specifically.
2. WHAT I have a Blizzard in winterhold!! / Will this make Winterhold always have clear weather? This mod in practice makes Winterhold town have the same weather as the rest of the hold, so if you get hit by a blizzard at Sarthaal and make your way to Winterhold, for example, you will still likely be in a blizzard when you arrive. Waiting around in Winterhold on a clear day long enough, and you will eventually get snow of some sort. This mod only disables the forced blizzard that occurs when entering the town on vanilla game setups, a storm which can then follow you across skyrim for some ways since it is set to override regular whether in vanilla Skyrim.
3. Can I merge this into a merged patch/plugin of some sort, say using that TESVEdit script elsewhere on the Nexus? I don't see why it wouldn't work, it is literally one record edited.
After 6 grueling years of blood, sweat, and tears, a new update is finally here! The main file is now flagged as an esl file, so it won't take up one of those precious load order slots! Enjoy the new year!
