Weather and Climate Command Center

The Weather and Climate Command Center was a facility in the heart of the Lost City of the Jedi. According to DJ-88, droid administrator of the Lost City, it was the Control Center which was actually responsible for regulation of the climate of Yavin 4. DJ-88 claimed that Yavin 4 had originally been a frigid ice world before ancient Jedi Masters terraformed its surface and opened vast steam vents to warm and water imported foliage. The water vapor output of the vents was controlled by the Weather and Climate Control Center. Under the tireless, millennia-long direction of the Center's droid operators, Yavin 4 settled into a six-month wet season contrasted with a six-month dry season. During Trioculus' onslaught on Yavin 4, Treaded Neutron Torches set fire to the moon's vast rain-forests. Fleeing the unquenchable blaze, Luke Skywalker entered the Lost City through one of the titanic steam vents and petitioned DJ-88 for help in defeating the Imperial forces. Although the moon's wet season was months away, DJ-88 ordered that the steam vents be opened prematurely. Skywalker, himself provided the code necessary to activate the ancient Climate Control machinery, an alphanumeric sequence which the Force spirit of Obi-Wan Kenobi had imparted to him in a dream: 'JE-99-DI-88-FOR-00-CE'. Upon receipt of this activation code, the steam vents opened to full capacity. The resulting condensation generated massive thunderstorms which doused the raging wildfires. Presumably, the Weather and Climate Control Center was sealed after the abandonment of the Lost City of the Jedi.
==Behind the scenes==
While the designation "Weather and Climate Control" may appear redundant, the two terms are distinct, with "Weather" usually referring to the activity of atmospheric phenomena over short periods (hours or days), and climate referring to the average atmospheric conditions over longer periods of time.
