Weird Weather, Hostile Weather, and Weather Manipulation powers can be devastating to characters, places, and objects without the proper personal protective equipment. Characters that understand this will thus make use of weatherproofing methods and abilities to protect themselves or the things they care about from harmful weather effects. These can range from raincoats to storm doors to Applied Phlebotinum. Characters with Weather Manipulation powers or certain Elemental Powers often have an innate weatherproofing Required Secondary Power.
Keep in mind not all weather protection is universal or 100% effective; a warm bulky coat is useful in the winter cold but can be detrimental in the summer heat. In addition, occasional maintenance may be required for continued protection. Some protection works to a point but prolonged exposure can erode its efficacy.
See also Defog of War in regards to Fog of War and Exposed to the Elements which can overlap with this.

Heat and cold resistance play a major role in the formation of ecosystems in The Sapling, with there being a wide variety of body parts that can play a role in determining what species can survive in what temperatures (for example, a fat animal with thick fur would be better suited for colder climates). This is especially true if playing on a world with seasonal extremes, as only the most specialized species will be able to survive year round without some sort of behavior like migration, hibernation, or (in the case of very short lived species) simply timing their eggs to hatch during more favorable seasons.

Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay:
A minor Hedge Magic spell shields the user from rain — useful everyday Utility Magic, but it also protects gunpowder weapons from water damage.
One of the possible Marks of the Supernatural that Ice Witches can acquire makes them immune to non-magical cold, a major benefit in their frigid homeland.

Uncanny X-Men:
Ororo Munroe, aka Storm, can and has strolled around in frigid temperatures in clothes that make Elsa's ice dress look downright conservative, due to her weather powers allowing her to regulate her internal temperature at will.
Bobby Drake, aka Iceman, can also handle extreme temperatures, though arid, dry heat can affect his ability to generate ice, as he has to pull the moisture from the air to make it.

Dungeons & Dragons:
Some weather-related spells (such as Protection from Winds, Storm Shield, Wind and Rain Protection, and Endure Elements) will protect a Player Party from the effects of Hostile Weather.
Characters with resistance to cold or fire damage (whether innately due to their race or as an effect from a magic item or class feature) are also immune to the effects of extreme cold or heat, respectively.

In The Vazula Chronicles, merpeople have adaptations to survive the cold at the bottom of the ocean. Merletta finds it uncomfortable and prefers the heat at the surface, but she's not in danger of hypothermia like a human would be. When she and the guards transform into humans on the coast of Valoria during winter, they feel truly cold for the first time in their lives.

Gargoyles: Despite mostly being dressed in simple loincloths (Hudson has leather armor, but not much else), the title creatures have little problem flying around Manhattan in the dead of winter. As Goliath states "Cold doesn't bother us." In fact, in the episode where they find themselves stranded in the Arctic Circle, it's the lack of visibility a sudden blizzard generates that causes them problems rather than the cold.

Pokémon:
Rock, Ground, and Steel Types are immune to damage from Sandstorm.
The abilities Sand Veil, Sand Rush, and Sand Force prevent damage from Sandstorm.
Ice Types are immune to damage from Hail.
The abilities Snow Cloak and Ice Body prevent damage from Hail.
Shadow Pokemon are immune to damage from Shadow Sky.
The abilities Overcoat and Magic Guard prevent damage from either Sandstorm and Hail.
The ability Forecast, signature ability of Castform, changes the user's Type depending on the weather. In Hail, the Type becomes Ice.
Inverted with the abilities Dry Skin and Solar Power, which decrease the user's HP for every turn of harsh sunlight. However, Dry Skin makes the Pokémon immune to the Water Type and rain/Water-type attacks will heal it and Solar Power increases the Pokemon's special attack during harsh sunlight.
The abilities Air Lock and Cloud Nine negate all effects weathers have such as the damaging effects, although they do not remove the weather itself.
The items Safety Goggles and Utility Umbrella protects the holder from the effects of weather.

During the first Secret Wars (1984), the good guys hunker down in a fortress while a tremendous storm rages outside. Iron Man wonders why Thor is out amid the gale-force winds and slashing rain. Spider-Man points out that Thor is the god of thunder, "He's probably cheering it on." Verily, Thor is almost giddy with delight at the storm's power and fury, being almost enough to result in The End of the World as We Know It.
