If the weather greatly impacts the car handling between both versions, let me know when the game is out. Until then, i'll keep saying it's just graphics. Nothing has been said to believe otherwise.

 

IGN has released a new preview video that explains in more detail how the weather system works in Forza Horizon 2. Fog, mist, rain, wind and everything else will be added as weather in the game. The only weather effect not included is snow since the areas in France and Italy the game is set in don’t have snow.

The dynamic weather system is more than just a cosmetic and graphical difference in Forza Horizon 2. The weather will also have an effect on the way you drive. Rain and mist will impair your visibility and will also make the roads more slippery. There are also varying amounts of rain you can experience. Light showers won’t be too bad, but heavy rain will make things more difficult.

Even the article explains that its not just "GRAPHICS"

How much more evidence do you want? Why can't you understand that adding features like this isn't possible on last gen hardware without severly impacting the game in a negative fashion.
