Weather?

If there is no weather, there is no need for different stadium types, every team is exactly the same.
I like to simulate or watch games (CPU vs CPU) so having as many different variables that affect games is important to me, like the real NFL. an option to have it on or off I agree with.

Weather would be a great feature.

My ideas for this:
1. The ideal, the brilliant solution
The player/the commissioner determines geographic coordinates for each city.
Brooks would have to find a weather service from which he can download the relevant, up-to-date weather data via DDSPF according to the coordinates of the cities.

2. Solution
Brooks creates different sets of climatic data: arctic, tropical, subtropical, Mediterranean, hot ...
The player/the commissioner then determines for the cities in a menu, to which weather data sets, DDSPF can access for the relevant city.

and how the relevant weather conditions affect the game, could lower running back ability slightly in rain or snow for example.

Weather has been implemented.
Does weather actually affect the game as well?

Yes, although we may need to add a slider to increase the effects. They're pretty mild right now.
