Weathering is a town in the northern Roughs.[1] 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.[2] Though it was six years of work before anyone bothered to give him any sort of credentials to make the position official.[3]
When Wax arrived, Weathering was just a small collection of houses and shops.[2] 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.[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.[5]
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.[5]
