Ah...

Ignore me actually :-|

I've just read the explanation again and it says:

"Case of il fait du soleil or Il fait soleil: This seems to be presented as idiomatic in a lot of French learning methods,"

I missed that is is an idiom before, sorry!

So why would one say "Il fait soleil", as soleil is a noun ?

Where did you see that sentence?
