Anyway here's list of few things
Weather Bonuses on Gear
Bonus Weather Materia
Weather Bonuses-towards Crystal Elemental (Can we have it for Primal Summoning-Force Weather Change)
DoL & DOH on gear and finding rare items.
Small Damage Bonuses towards right elemental attacks/magic under the right weather.
Special Enemies appear in Weather (more then Dolmore) Can we have Elementals.
This also for Daytime & Night time Enemies. Undead/Bats/Wolfs etc.
I'm all for weather effecting the monsters that show up in the world as well as elemental damage bonuses/negatives from weather effects.
Not so much on the gear though, as hot-swapping gear isn't really a thing for the game it would be pretty situational. I think SE wants to avoid people building specific "Sets" of gear. But what do I know could be a usefull materia stat at least to give people a choice over functional (HP whatnot) over situational.
Perhaps instead of gear itself, could add what i've heard someone else suggest and give some sort of bonus to harvesting certain items in certain weather. Or atleast make them more likely to be the harvested item. In some ways it could be helpful if your after a certain item just wait for the rains to come ^^
Why don't you just ask for your inventory to be shrunk by 6 items whenever bad weather starts and you can imagine that it makes some sort of difference.
