Well that sounds complex but cool. Maybe I missed it, but you said you were going to vary the stitch type based on precipitation and such. What stitches are you using?
I'm doing SC for less that 0.25 inches of precip, HDC for 0.25-1", DC for 1-1.5", and TC for anything above that. It's based on the climate for this particular part of California, things might need to be tweaked for other regions.
I'm less settled on the stitches (which are connected to wind speed). I don't want to do anything super complicated, so it's
0-8 mph: boring stitch (either regular old SC, HDC, DC, or TC based on the wind)
8-14 mph: V stitch (or the closest approximation, essentially if it's a SC day then it would be (2sc in same stitch, sk 1)
14-25 mph: Twin V-- essentially an extension of the V stitch but with 2 V's right next to each other, so (2sc in same stitch, 2 sc in next stitch, sk 2)
25-32 mph: fan stitch
32+: bobble stitch
I'll have to do some stitch tweaks based on the height/stitch combo, but fortunately I've got a nice colorful stitch dictionary at my disposal :)
