The weather field captures the conditions during a day of fieldwork — entries like "Clear", "Overcast with afternoon showers", or "Heavy rain, site closed by noon". It is optional, but recording it is valuable because weather drives so much of what is possible on a dig: rain halts excavation, heat affects crew stamina, and wet ground changes how soils read. Paired with the temperature field and the day's workSummary, the weather note helps explain why progress on any given date looked the way it did.
