Much of what scientists know are observations made from Charon eclipsing Pluto and Pluto's chance encounter in occulting (covering up) a star. When Pluto occulted a star, a haze was revealed suggesting that Pluto likely has an extremely thin atmosphere. This atmosphere is probably made up of a blend of nitrogen and methane.
These elements may exist as a gas when Pluto is closest to the Sun (at perihelion), but would then freeze as Pluto moves further away. Analysis indicates that the surface of Pluto is composed of about 98% nitrogen with small amounts of methane and carbon monoxide.
There is some evidence that Pluto's tenuous atmosphere may be slowly escaping into space, possibly moving to Charon. When Pluto occulted the above mentioned star, the haze layer was also theorized to indicate that Pluto has a temperature inversion, possibly indicating that Pluto has some weather.
The surface temperature of Pluto has been estimated in a range from -378 to -396 degrees F. In short, there is insufficient data to give a greatly defined answer, but the gathered data supports that the weather on Pluto is extremely cold and has only minor fluctuations in temperature.
Normally the weather on Pluto is actually cloud. At night time it is 60% chilly and in the morning time, it is absolutely FREEZING! If you ever landed on Pluto, it would really be cloudy and you wouldn't see a thing!
Pluto is smaller than our moon. Although bodies only slightly larger than our moon may possess an atmosphere, such as Saturn's moon Titan, Pluto is most likely an airless, icy world. Any gases it might possess are probably combined with elements which substantially raise their freezing temperature, and now coat Pluto's surface like frost or dry ice.
It will be so cold you will freeze to death.
very cold weather, since it is far away from the sun
the temperature ranges from -240ºC to 218ºC
It has a methane atmosphere, but any winds are not measurable.
Weather on Pluto is 378 to 396 f.
Pluto is not a planet, it is a metior. It has no atmosphere, so it has no weather
Britain is by a pattern were unpredictable weather problems happen.
Water cycle affects the weather pattern. Weather becomes moist after it rains.

cold and stormy
It is unknown of the weather conditions on Pluto because it is so far away. Also Pluto isn't a planet anymore!
Pluto is very very very cold do to the fact that it is really far from the sun
No. In fact, all evidence suggests that there are no storms on Pluto. Pluto only has a temporary thin atmosphere during its "summer" years when it is closest to the sun, but no weather has ever been observed.
No. There is almost no weather activity on Pluto as far as we know. Pluto only has a thin temporary atmosphere during its "summer" years, when the surface ice evaporates. In winter, there is no atmosphere.
Elliptical
Nothing is known at this moment about weather patterns on Pluto. However the New Horizons mission will arrive there on July the 14th 2015. Then we will know more.

Weather really follows a day to day pattern
