Cloudburst

This spell precipitates a rush of water out of the air, instantly drenching everything in the area of effect. Normal fires are extinguished. Permanent magical fires go out, but re-light in d2 rounds (weapons in 1 round). Fire-based spells of 1st or 2nd level are negated immediately.

Fire-based spells of 3rd level or higher are also negated, but create a steam cloud with a 120-ft. diameter. Those within the steam cloud are scalded for d3 points of damage per round (twice this for cold-based creatures). The steam cloud lasts d4+1 rounds, half that in a breeze, and but one round in a strong wind.

This spell has doubled effect in humid climes, causes a heavy dampness in and climes, produces slush and sleet at temperatures near freezing, and creates up to 10 inches of snow if the temperature is below freezing.
