When I got Tank I had the same weather issue, so I also trained him inside but on a grass potty patch. How I transitioned him was, I moved the patch from inside to out porch, so he got used to the outside weather and noises, once I did that a few times I started bringing him outside immediately after meals, and took him to a spot with as little distractions as possible and gave him his potty command, and now he only goes outside...I'm just working on how to get him to give me a sign that he needs to actually go out!! I'm not sure if this helps you at all but it worked for us! Good luck!!
