Don't limit yourself to weather, there is also day, twilight/dawn, and night time elements.
I would love to switch my multi-player map from daylight to a night with heavy rain complete with occasional flashes of lighting and the booming of thunder.
The good thing is that it's possible, the Xbox can do it, even Live. Weather effects are independent of bandwidth (perhaps with the exclusion of lightning if you're being picky since it's a random light source) and maps can be light mapped for different times of the day meaning you'd have multiple versions of the same map on the DVD.
