If you go into the FMB you can set up weather patterns for your mission and it doesn't look bad at all. I remember someone posting screenshots of this from an earlier version but i can't recall exactly which thread it was. All i remember was seeing a flight of 110s cruising between two cloud layers at low altitude and the colours and general feeling of it where very much giving an impression of flying in an impending storm.
Once the graphics optimizations are complete maybe they'll move on to that and enable it, seeing as it's pretty much included in the sim already.

And here's a couple more. The first one above an overcast and the second one diving down to go through it.
I've been experimenting with different weather settings and unfortunately the two things which are certain with the current build are 1) its a frame killer if you up the complexity (i.e. layers and areas) and 2) its unstable and will lead to crashes.
