By 9 a.m., you're still getting spattering rain, but the easterly storm has swung around and moved north, out of sight beyond the mountains.  The wind has died away, to a "light air," just barely detectable.  The sky is open on the west, overcast on the east; with bits of rain coming from its cloudy edge.  The temperature is cool and comfortable.

Leaving

The DM: A storm drifted past on to the east on the 27th of May, but Treborg received only a scant rainfall from it. However, through the night, a new storm formed in the mountains a hundred miles to the east, where you can just see the edges of it. At 6 a.m. on the 28th, you are getting spattering rain from gentle squalls brought by a southwestly wind, not more than a light breeze. The sky is full of mixed darkened clouds, with small blue patches. There's no certainty if it will just blow over or will close up and begin to seriously rain. Are you ready to get started or do you want to see? What sort of rain gear do you have?

Pandred: I've got my heavy coat, but I doubt the rest of us, particularly the hirelings, have anything to protect them. I think we have little choice but to wait this out.
Embla Strand : I've a cloak, high hard boots, and a bearskin coat. That said, we'll make poor progress if it does start to rain. Let's wait.
