Yeah that makes sense too have the same weather each turn it seems fair.

Mithrilotter
Playing with the "same weather for both sides of a turn", is only the same weather for the Axis and then the Allies, but not necessarily the same for the Allies and then Axis.
For example, Axis goes first in most of the campaigns, so the Allies are always second under any specific date, i.e. before the date and weather advances to the next turn date and weather.
From 1939 to let's say 1941, when the Axis are on the offensive, the Allies can always be guaranteed to defend/respond to any Axis aggression with the same weather.
However, once the balance tips and the Allies go on more offensives later on in game, because the Allies go second under a specific date, the Axis, which is now on the defensive, is not guaranteed the same weather to respond to any Allied attacks.
Why? Because the date rolls over to the next date after an Allied turn, and the weather only possibly changes between Allied and Axis turns, whereas the weather is always guaranteed between an Axis and Allied turn when you play with same weather for both sides.
Essentially, and because the turns are alternate and not simultaneous, I would argue that even in a system where "weather is the same for both sides", you'll reach a point where weather is not the same for both sides depending upon who has the initiative.
At least with the current more random system, while not perfect, weather can at times be the same, or different etc., with no clear advantage to one side or the other.
