What of weather with the meaning of “To endure”? Weather the storm. Whether the battle. Wether the illness. Must say the first one looks correct to me. Despite the use of the word storm I think this is an entirely different meaning from either of the ones above. Which is correct?

To me and many other native anglophones, “whether” has a different first sound and is therefore not a homophone of the other two words.
