1) The weather's been good this week. -

This usage shows the apostrophe creating a contraction of the word 'has' with 'weather'. Spelled in full it would be "The weather has been good this week."

2)The weather's effect on a person's mood has been well documented.

This usage is a possessive apostrophe and shows that the 'effect' belongs to the 'weather'. Another example could be "My sister's car is blue." The apostrophe shows the car belongs to the sister.
