It's the nice weather
Could you please explain me why "It's THE nice weather" is not correct grammatically?
If I'm not mistaken, the correct form is "It's nice weather", but I wonder why exactly.
I know that weather is uncountable, but still, we say "THE weather is good", don't we?

We're not being specific about the weather. Today's weather is an example of nice weather.
Compare it with these sentences:
He's a nice guy.
This is nice coffee.
It's a nice place.
...in all cases, we don't use "the".
"The" can be used with countable and uncountable nouns equally. You can revise your notes on when to use "a/an/the".
In the case of "The weather is nice", we know which weather you mean: today's weather.

because weather is uncountable noun, we use the mostly with countable nouns.

Hmm - I tried to answer that, but I can't. I don't know the grammar well enough. The first version is normally not correct, except as a phrase, or in answer to a question, such as 'why is that tree flowering so early?'. But I don't know _why_.
