He said UA told him (after waiting an hour in "customer service") that because the delay was weather - he got absolutely no compensation for hotel or meals!?!?!

This just doesnt sound right to me... being a 2P, perhaps I might have gotten better attention in IAH

That is the way PMCO worked. So better get used to it. Everything is weather and they mostly don't hold flights - even for last flight out - where nobody is connecting at the destination.
