If you mean the visual effects, no, not to my knowledge. Thunderstorms are a very special case -- visuals aside, they'll require fairly sophisticated weather modelling and good turbulence support from the FDMs even just to fake them credibly (simply darkening the sky, making boom noises and flashing jagged white lines would only make us look stupid). For rain and snow, you'll have to consider the effect of wind on the precipitation -- if the wind is gusting to 30kt, you hardly want the snow gently drifting down. It's a big problem, and I'd like to solve some smaller problems first (like 3D clouds), but we'll have to hit it someday. If you're volunteering, you are very welcome.
