 Frank - 

My 630m station is in the corner of the lower level of my house.  The feedpoint of the inverted-L wire antenna is actually indoors, so there is no weather effect on the tuning network in either the CW transmitter or next to the WSPR amplifier.  You can see the setup at

In spite of completely dry and temperature-controlled environment for the tuning networks still experience some variation in the antenna match as the weather varies - not extreme, but enough to need to retune a bit on a rainy or snowy day.
