A ton! One job that heavily relies on the weather is telecommunications. Yep, I would have never guess it until I became a field manager. First, you have to think that everywhere there is a phone line it means that there literally is a copper wire (sometimes fiber optic now) from that phone to the other phone you are speaking to (cell phones are connect to transmitters that are connected to phone lines). A lot of how a phone works by the amount of battery current that is on the line and is transmitted all the way through to your phone set. When there is any (especially heavy) precipitation, water can get into the phone lines and cause static, noise, and service outages. While the copper in phone lines are covered the lines can be over 100 years old, so naturally there can be many wears and tears. Since lots of the phone lines run outside when it rains, snow melts, etc water can get into the tiny crevasses and cause outages of affected service. When I worked ans a field manager for one of the leading US telecommunication companies, I checked the weather multiple times a day. Whenever it would storm it would mean lots of work.
