In the "Atmosphere Properties", you can add multiple atmosphere presets in the "Transitions" panel, ie. _mp_2p_Kholodnaya_Ferma.aps and _mp_2p_kholodnaya_ferma_blizzard.aps and specify how many seconds the transitions should take and how long each atmosphere should live.

With the "Load" and "Save" buttons at the top, you can even load the standard presets and edit them.

Is that not the same thing?

Edit: Ah, no it's not the same thing. But with this you can make your map start out at night and transition to daytime.

was the line " true, -- Start in Blizzard" was a hint?

Ok, I got the Blizzard to work as well. So here is what I did.

I opened the rostov scarfile and compared it to jannes code. The only difference was that there are some more settings in there that specified the blizzard. Starting time, duration finishing time and so on. So it dawned to me that the blizzard wont come if it doesn't know when and for how long. So I just coppied the settings and played a little around with them. This is my scarcode of my <yourmapname.scar>.
