Weather Domain — Pathfinder 1e
Published Pathfinder 1e domain.
Storm Burst (Sp)
As a standard action, make a ranged touch attack against a foe within 30 feet. A hit deals 1d6 nonlethal damage plus 1 per two cleric levels and imposes a −2 penalty on its attacks for 1 round. Daily uses equal 3 + your Wisdom modifier.
Lightning Lord (Sp)
At 8th level, your daily pool of lightning bolts equals your cleric level. Call any number with one standard action, using different targets, with no two targets more than 30 feet apart. The power otherwise works as Call Lightning.

How the Weather Domain Plays
Pathfinder Weather combines a short-range disruptive attack with a pool of lightning bolts at 8th level. Its spell list progresses from concealment and storms to large-scale weather control. The Greek tradition instead emphasizes forecasting and its own weather spells.
Associated Deities
Deities: Zeus, Athena and Demeter.
Priests, Rites and Sacred Places
Weather priests serve exposed coasts, agricultural communities and travelers whose safety depends on the sky. Their rites mark seasonal changes and ask their patrons for rain, safe passage and relief from storms.
