It is seasonal, sometimes it will rain and sometimes it won't.

Reggie's video?
I love it when people try new things in kenshi. Always end up learning the hard way.

So! Welcome to the Burning Forest. You may have heard that it rains acid here.
The Burning Forest has two seasons, a rainy one and a dry one. The dry one is an even mix of clear sunny days and brutal sandblasting dust storms rolling in from the nearby deserts.
During rain season it rains all the time, sometimes regular rain sometimes acid rain.

The seasons rotate, I don't remember how long. Weeks, if such a term applies to kenshi.
Anyway, since it's only raining 50% of the time and there's no guarantee that rain will be acid, you cannot actually rely on the rain to protect your base.

Depends on the location. Here in the Burning Forest the seasons are 50 about days long. Then as you mentioned, during the wet season it's only sometimes acid, about 50% of the time. So on average only 25 days out of 100 will be acid rain.

I'd be more worried about the hordes of blood spiders waiting to rip your arms off.

If you're a robot then the burning forest is the place. You worry more about getting robbed and kidnapped than being eaten alive. I would run hash from the swamps and bring it to the Lagoon city for wonderful early game gold. But the journey is made better with a group or a skelly they can play dead after being beat to near death by beak things lol. The pest part of the burning forrest is the big lake and road that boarders shem. I've build a town that locks all routes in and around for miles and have started spreading my influence through the land. What remains of my opposition will crumble
