Day/night cycle
- Affects temperature
- Affects solar energy generation
- Headlights needed to drive at night
- Driving at night also increases fatigue faster
Cloud cover
- Affects temperature
- Affects solar energy
- Enough clouds means rain and potentially lightning
Rain
- Increases probability of flooding and accidents
Lightning/storms
- Lightning can strike car and fry electronics if no lightning rod
- Lightning can potentially be harvested
- Increased wind speeds
- Sometimes hail can occur and damage car
Temperature
- Higher temperature increases fatigue accumulation
- Extreme temp eratures will result in heatstroke and death
- Air conditioning needed to keep cool, requires more energy when there is more heat
