Ok additional testing reveals that thunderstorms ARE happening - but they are not happening everywhere. I'm not sure if it is 100% chunk based as it seems to be an issue effecting smaller areas than chunks but will try to explain:

Lets say we have a set of blocks in the following pattern where each letter represents about a four block square:

ABC
DEF

GHI

I can be standing anywhere in region E, and the sky will be gray but no precipitation or thunder/lightening.

Moving to ABCDFGH or I, and there WILL be precipitation (and thunder/lightning if it is a thunderstorm).  Then moving back to E it may or may not start precipitation but will never start thunder/lightening (even if the adjacent blocks are thunderstorm)

Entering and leaving blocks denoted by E will frequently toggle the precipitation in block E.

Notes:

*this is in an ICE biome so all precipitation is snow.

*there are additional anomolies is nearby blocks - ie it snows INSIDE my house but only on a 4x4 area of blocks (always the same 4x4 area when its snowing outside). The area is definitely covered by several layers of non-transparent blocks.

 

As noted above, this occurs is several different biomes where I was waiting for thunderstorms - apparently if I had just moved a few blocks to the side I would have detected them.

 

 

This still happens to me - I have 15-20 portals, and randomly will take damage going though any one of them in either direction.   Its not everytime but most of the time.

  • Whatever current bedrock edition is on XBOX one as of this post.

  • They are all standard minimum sized portals,

  • some have one end auto-generated, some I built both ends to exact coordinate locations

  • I have tried clearing more terrain around the portals - including having some free-floating one block off the ground

  • It is SIGNIFICANTLY worse since I moved my world from a solo world to a Realm.

  • damage can vary from 1/2 a heart to almost dead from full health - hasn't killed me yet but probably will one of these days.  

  • Always take the damage while it is in the transition screen (building terrain or whatever) where I can't do anything.  The majority of the time its just 1/2 to a full heart of damage.  But occasionally if the loading screen stays up longer, it is significantly more.

  • I've tried entering the portals from various angles, directions, side, middle, but no rhyme or reason as to why sometimes I have no issue, and other times I do. 

  • no noticable difference based on number of people playing in the realm - from just me to 4 people.  I'm not the only one that takes damage - everyone does.

  • The damage I BELIEVE is suffocation - and I get the constant tick-tick-tick of taking damage while the destination terrain is being built - so the longer that takes, the more damage I take (WHEN i take damage - which is not everytime but probably 50% of the time)

Similar problem here:

Had a huge world created in solo play.  Doing the Free 30 day trial for Realms so I imported my world.

40-50 hours in and not a single thunderstorm on the Realm copy - weather worked fine in solo.  Will likely just cancel the Realm subscription until it works properly.
