Yes, the weather is based on the location of the city. Which isn't as dramatic as you might think, a lot of the really cold weather up north tends to happen after January. The weather is actually mapped to a real date in history (the year is adjusted to a historical year for each season) and pulls real weather from that date for the city the game is in. The data comes from
http://forecast.io (check out the "time machine" feature) which covers the entire world.
It would be awesome then if the northern cities made it into the later rounds of the playoffs because then you would see some real crazy weather for the playoff games.
maybe it is just me but it would nice to have like weather affect the games where both teams have to stop passing the ball and just run it all day , they have to stop running it and just pass it all day , they combine to post really bad passing or rushing numbers , they score like 2 points the whole game because it is so hard to stay on their feet , passes sail right out of bounds , etc.
Btw: not saying you would have to have the weather affect the games just was giving my 2 cents worth of a opinion of how nice it would be like.
