Hello again!
Yeah, I thought about it:
1. It should be a separate but probably integrated mod, as this one focuses a lot on making use lightnings, and can be used without natural lightnings, any sort of weather.
2. I considered developing a weather, but this requires too much time on planning, designing and developing it, especially drawing... And planning: it's hard to make a good, interesting, beautiful, yet performant mod of so new, unusual mechanics for Factorio. I like this idea, but not enough to spend this much efforts, at least working alone. And I already made API (remote interfaces) so that other mods can easily integrate and control my Lightnings.
3. Also, there is at least 1 weather mod already, and Space Exploration also has some plans for making weather. Speaking of SE, Earendel said that will consider integrating my mod into it.
