This is a very cool idea. I like the idea of weather challenges that make each battle a little different, and planning your tactics based on what weather may move through the area over the next few hours.

We already know that fog and possibly heavy rain and sandstorms will blot out sniping, spotting, and long-range combat, which I think is a really intriguing element rather than a downside.

I'd really like to see something like an ion storm roll through a courtyard every now and then (maybe once a week) that would disable active cloaking capabilities, radar, AA/AV tracking, etc for an hour or so.
