My guess is people won't really like adding weather impact to games. Sim is well known for it's randomness and sometimes glitches. Now the weather just adds another level of randomness to the games. And I'm not really sure how it will work. Should home teams from places with extreme weather get even more advantages? Should teams suffer even more when playing in diametrically opposite environments, like Yellowknife in Arizona or vice versa? Will everything in environment count, like Colorado mountain air, affecting kicking and players exhaustion or just wind and temperature. With weather impact voting for Ultimus or Ultimini placement should count weather too now. How will teams perform in Cote-d'ivoire or Dubai or McMurdo station? It will make the home advantage in playoffs even more important.
On the other side, it will allow smart GMs to game plan for the weather after seeing more of it's impact on the sim. An esthetically wise, if you have some really good imagination, you can pretend that kicker missed a game winning FG cause of wind, or RB fumbled in snow game.
