Answer 1

1. Nearly all pronouns have antecedents, but in sentences referring to weather in some way (as in this sentence), there is usually no antecedent for "it" --

It's hot outside.
It's snowing!
It's like a sauna outside -- so hot and humid.

3 is grammatically correct, but 2 is used more often.

4. Instead of "weigh" you can use "consider" or "think carefully about" (among a few others).

5. Instead of "come in" you can use "are available in" -- I can't think of any others right off the top of my head!
