The noun is a regular nominalization of the adjective 'weatherproof' using '-ness'; the meaning is directly predictable.
Etymology
The word weatherproofness comes from three parts: weather, meaning 'rain, wind, or snow'; proof, meaning 'resistant to', as in waterproof and bulletproof; and -ness, meaning 'quality'. So weatherproofness is the 'quality' of keeping things dry and safe from bad weather.
