Español-

Hace frío.

Hace calor.


Llueve \ está lloviendo \ cae la lluvia

está nevando \ cae la nieve

Hace sol \ el sol brilla

NB: you can also say nieva for "it's snowing", but the hispanohablantes I know almost always used the progressive form, or caer + la nieve (esp. for the past tense - cayó la nieve).

1) It's cold. It's warm.
2a&b) It rains. It snows.
3) The sun shines.

3) Daal Aipsin.

Note that in 1 and 2a, the here/now component is required in formal speech (a copula technically requires two noun phrases to connect), but could be dropped in the vernacular. 'Here' and 'now' usually require an explicit locative inflection, but the absolutive can be used in place of the adessive, as in this case.
