If you're not talking about current atmospheric conditions or a castrated ram then yes, you are correct.

All depends on the context.

All 3 words are correct.

My advice is to advise wisely...

When you see a pedant getting stressed about misuse of words, pat them on the shoulder and mutter there, they're, their.

Whether the weather be fine
Or whether the weather be not,
Whether the weather be cold
Or whether the weather be hot,
We'll weather the weather
Whatever the weather,
Whether we like it or not.

Good advise John. 

Only joshing. Incorrect spelling of the 'A' word above (oft-seen on the forum) is a pet hate of mine.

Still enjoying Andy's system building expertise? I had a nice chat with him at Signals yesterday.

It was great to have the system set up so expertly, particularly the SL2s. Good for another 10 years hopefully. 

And I have to admit to really enjoying the day, I had known Alastair more from previous dealings but Andy is exceptionally good company also. 

Your lucky to have such good chaps local to you ( and I’m very lucky they are willing to travel).
