• How do weather conditions and time of day impact line of sight?
• Is there a relationship to smoke LOS with Weather/Time of Day or are these different game mechanics?

The weather effects only unit voices. Nothing else.

Really? I never knew that. How does Snow/Rain affect voices?

[pariah]

There is no snow in standard Company Of Heroes, so the snow doesn't affect anything.

Stormy weather is good for listening to unit voices.

"When I was a child I used to play in thunderstorms like this!"

"Now it's a true lightning war!"

PE infantry
"Forget your barracks assault grenadiers, the rain will keep you fresh."
"When I was a kid I used to run into any thunderstorm I could find."

PE Grenadiers:
"I ordered this rain especially for you deinhard"
"Thunder lighting, guns steel I LOVE IT!"
I enjoys the weird things the PE factions says ^^

[jeff the mighty]

i really like the little sayings the units say but i feel this is missing from the russians as i dont know what they mean when they say things and it makes the units that little bit more boreing

[Pac-Fish]

If Im correct they say similar things to vCOH infantry. So just image a Russian rifleman and what he would say in the rain ^^. I guess the fact they speak Russian makes them unique but confusing.

American unit voices in Russian language.

My favourite is the Wirbelwind: "Rain... open-topped tank... f**king great engineering."

They also have some rather abusive comments if you repeatedly click on them.

Hahaha 

Anyway I don't think the weather hasn't any effect on the game.
I remember that during a game I've shot the smoke mortar barriage, and the rain canceled it immedatly; the smoke has been active for about 2-3 seconds.

[Otto Halfhand]

Does the rain have other effects you'all are aware of? Does it effect incendiaries for example, (It shouldn't but we are not talking about simulation here)?

[Pac-Fish]

I dont think it does. I threw a PE incindery grenade at a building, later a trench, and it still burned. I think the weathers just for show and drama

Phosphor even burns in rainy conditions.
