Dynamic weather (Tornado and that's it)

So apart from the daily Tornado on every map, and an actually realistic sandstorm on Hourglass. What other weather effects are there?? 

Snowstorm on Breakaway?? 

Dust/sandstorm on Renewal??

Where is the dynamic weather? Appears the Tornado was there big selling point!

    @JediMastaWyn Also, the tornado and sandstorm seem to hit at the same time in every round. So it's not really "dynamic," it's actually scripted. I'd love to see random weather occur in a round...nothing super-severe like a tornado, but rain (snow on a cold map), maybe light fog, overcast. Nothing that's going to screw up balance or gameplay *too* much, more for just atmosphere. And I'm sorry, atmosphere is something that BF2042 is SERIOUSLY lacking compared to even BF3 or BF4, much less BF1 or BFV, which absolutely nailed the feeling of "being there" whatever their other flaws were.

    A lot of engineering resources went toward coding a tornado in the game engine. Personally I think those resources could have been better spent elsewhere. Like optimizing the game's frame rate.
