Class: esri/views/3d/environment/SunnyWeather
Inheritance: SunnyWeather Accessor

The SunnyWeather class allows you to change the weather conditions in the scene to sunny weather.

scene-atmosphere

Example:

let view = new SceneView({
  container: "viewDiv",

  map: new Map({
    basemap: "satellite",
    ground: "world-elevation"
  }),
  environment: {
    weather: {
      type: "sunny",
      cloudCover: 0.8      // autocasts as new SunnyWeather({ cloudCover: 0.8 })
    }
  }
});

The weather visualization updates as soon as the property changes:

view.environment.weather = {
   type: "sunny",
   cloudCover: 0.4   // autocasts as new SunnyWeather({ cloudCover: 0.4 })
}
