Weather...

When you say "weather" in a sentence do you put "a" or "the?" Does it sometimes work both ways with or without?

Some of confusing sentences I thought of:
-It's "a" great weather!
-(The) weather is great!
-What "a" great weather we have here!
-What do you think about (the) weather?

How would you use a and the here?

{EDIT: I used " " instead of ( ) around the letter "a" because when you use ( ) it becomes into an emoticon like this (a).}

A is never used with weather. Use the in those sentences of yours in which it is in parentheses. CB

Thanks for the help! Just to make sure I understood your post, would the sentence below be correct?
"What great weather we have here!"

Also can you say "The weather is great!" with or without "the?"

The way "the" is used with "weather" is so confusing to me...

Correct.
huarache "The weather is great!" with or without "the?"
The is needed as the weather is the subject.

Also: I don't like the weather. (object of the verb like)
