'''Weathering''' is a town in the northern [[Roughs]].{{map ref|Elendel Basin}} It is west of [[Covingtar]] and east of [[Feltrel]].
When [[Waxillium Ladrian]] and [[Wayne]] first arrived in Weathering, the local saloon was the base of operations for notorious outlaw [[Granite Joe]]. Half the town was said to belong to Joe. After Joe's death at the hands of [[Lessie]], Wax decided that it might be a good idea to begin his task of changing the Roughs by working on this one town first, making himself the defacto lawman of Weathering.{{book ref|mb5|Prologue}} Though it was six years of work before anyone bothered to give him any sort of credentials to make the position official.{{book ref|mb6|17}}
When Wax arrived, Weathering was just a small collection of houses and shops.{{book ref|mb5|Prologue}} By the time he left, it had grown into a community of around 1500 people, with maybe as many as 1500 more in the surrounding areas that he was responsible for.{{book ref|mb4|4}} While some of that can be attributed to Wax's lawkeeping, the population growth likely had more to do with the arrival of a railway line into the city, which happened some time during his tenure there.{{book ref|mb4|2}}
When Wax eventually left for [[Elendel]], he entrusted Wayne with the responsibility of keeping order in Weathering. Wayne's subsequent departure left [[Barl]], someone Wax described as a "miscreant," in charge of keeping the peace in the area.{{book ref|mb4|2}}
