Yes they can make bad weather...if they happen to be outdoors(and actualy they still have to be CL 11 at least to cast Control Weather) but even then...Stormsight: so they can operate normaly in the conditions they create. Predict weather...might provide some advance notice for tactical purposes. Ignore Winds again lets them operate normaly in a certain adverse condition. Only the Storm Power, Widen Storm, Summon Hail/Lightning and the extra spell are the only offensive advantages, and the Resistance is a defensive one.  Most prestige classes of all kinds grant power with little or no drawback...much like the core classes. I dont see this as a problem.   I wasnt talking about popularity. I was more refering to publish-ability and to the fact that professional game designers designed thease things...and I've seen only a tiny handful of spellcasting prestige classes without full or almost full progression. Look at Tome and Blood. Fatespinner grants about half or a little more and Spellsword is half(but its a multiclass one). As near as I remember all the others have full or full -1 level.  I'm sorry I just dont think most of the abilities are really powerful at all and I am going to reduce stormpowers affect and replace Widen as it is.</blockquote>
