Advice on 3 potential errors (some weather-related)

Hello, new member and somewhat new to scorekeeping for 14u team. I have some plays over the past few weeks that i'd like to get some opinions on if they are errors or not. I'm still a little unclear how much weight to give to "weather" when it comes to judging errors for the second and third situation. Thanks for any help.

Situation #1: Fly ball hit a ball to the right field gap and a three-way collision ensues in the outfield between CF, RF and 2B, and ball drops. An error to the right fielder, because he had the best view of the 2nd baseman traveling backwards and the CF typically has priority over the RF. But after more thought, maybe this ball was a perfectly placed hit?

Situation #2 - High fly ball hit to center field. CF is parked underneath it, but then loses it in the sun and it drops about 5ft to his left. 

Situation #3:  This game is played in off/on heavy rain with moderate off/on wind gusts. Pop up fly ball hit to second baseman, he loses it in the rain and it drops to his left. 

Thanks for any advice.
