Meteor rain is an event that consists of Meteorite projectiles falling from the sky. It happens during Thunderstorm in a world with The Constant and For the Worthy seeds active, and Remix seed inactive.

For each tick,[1] there is a 2/3 (66.67%) chance (or 1/2 (50%) chance when the Drunk seed is active) for a Meteor to fall from a random location near the top world border.[2] The angle at which the meteors fall is affected by wind speed, with the angle becoming sharper as the wind speed increases. Meteors deal 140 / 280 / 420 damage to players (70 damage to non-player entities) and have a knockback of 10 (Extremely strong). These meteors do not drop anything upon dissipating.

This event does not have a related status message.
