Did you embark near to an evil biome? There is some 'leakage' if you are right on the edge, I believe.

Please reopen with a save if 0004310 (a tiny wedge of evil biome causing announcements for the whole map) doesn't explain it.

This is not about the constant rainfall. It's about evil rain on a not-evil map. Different issue. Not near the edge of an evil biome either, I don't think, though I wasn't looking for that sort of thing when I embarked. Will from now on, though.

Initial save at http://dffd.wimbli.com/file.php?id=10430 [^]

Did a tile by tile search of the whole map. No evil-only flora on the surface.

@Teres_Draconis: If you are not exactly sure what is near your fort you can check it this way:

Copy your region folder somewhere, retire your fortress, start again in the same world in Dwarf Fortress mode and during that embark site selection you can see what is around your current fortress. After that, quit game, remove current region save folder and put your old save one with unretired fortress back. See http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:Saved_game_folder [^] for more about save folders in DF.

Consolidating this to 0008781 since most the investigation is there.
