If the furniture starts rearranging itself, strengthen the last sentence: name the three hero objects that must stay exactly in place.
Platform notes
The technique is the constraint list: 'no cuts, no camera movement, only the light, the window, and the cat change'. Transformations fall apart when unnamed elements start drifting, so everything else is frozen by name.
The weather is staged in order (sun → grey → rain → lamp) because Sora sequences listed changes in the order given; a prompt that describes only the storm gets a jump cut to it.
Enhance: the cat is the emotional punctuation — a small living reaction sells scale better than any lighting change. Give any transformation scene one creature or person whose behaviour marks the change.

Sora Prompt — Room Weather Transformation (Starter)
Banned list —Beat grid —Build method —Self-review —
A locked-off shot of a cosy living room: armchair, bookshelf, rug, and a cat asleep on the windowsill. Across one unbroken shot, the weather outside the big window transforms — bright morning sun gives way to gathering grey clouds, then rain streaks the glass, wind rattles the pane, and the room's light cools and darkens. The cat wakes, stretches, and relocates to the rug as a lamp clicks on by itself, warming the room again. No cuts, no camera movement: only the light, the window, and the cat change.
