Forcing airlines to compensate passengers for weather delays isn't going to work, and isn't equitable. You'd probably have people purposefully trying to book flights that are liable to be cancelled in order to profit.

Don't know what disclaimer you're referring to but in the EU you still get a full refund for cancellations no matter what the reason.

If you know the flight will be cancelled why would the airline sell you the ticket?
Did you just contradict yourself? I'm confused.
You can be refunded without receiving additional compensation.
