The ability to outurn Starmie and Gengar seems vey tempting to me, so I made it a scarfer.
Standard ScarfSnow, generally works better

Lanturn (F) @ Leftovers
Ability: Volt Absorb
EVs: 40 HP/36 Spd/194 SAtk/240 SDef
Calm nature (+SDef, -Atk)
- Surf
- Thunderbolt
- Aqua Ring/Rest
- Blizzard/Sleep Talk
Now immune to Thunder Wave, Lanturn blocks his fellow electric almost perfectly. Aqua Ring for some more HP.
Sleep Talk is better IMO

Dragonite (M) @ Leftovers
Ability: Inner Focus
EVs: 252 Atk/64SpAtt/192Spd
Mild nature (+SAtk, -Def)
- Agility
- Earthquake
- Outrage
- Fire Blast
Not sure about this one, but Focus Punch can suprise Blissey.
Dragonite doesnt do mixed sets well, smogon's agiliNite is the closest thing to one.

Castform (F) @ Occa Berry
Ability: Forecast
EVs: 6 HP/252 Spd/252 SAtk
Timid nature (+Spd, -Atk)
- Energy Ball
- Blizzard
- Thunderbolt
- Thunder Wave
I never understood how can people forget this little fellow when making any weather team. I mean, it was invented for them...
People do not use it because of its pathetic stats, bin it.

Mamoswine (M) @ Choice Band
Ability: Snow Cloak
EVs: 66 HP/252 Atk/192 Spd
Adamant nature (+Atk, -SAtk)
- Earthquake
- Ice Fang
- Ice Shard
- Stone Edge
How can one forget Manoswine? OHKOs electrics in ease, just watch out for Electrive's Cross Chop.
Standard, fair enough.

It seemed to me that my team is to vunarble to fighting, so a ghost type would be obvious.

I'm not really sure what to do with Dragonite, and how to take care of my weakness to statuses. Any help?

At the moment other weather teams rape you entirely, particularly sandstorm variants. Any competant stone edge user can potentially 6-0 you. The problem is your reliance on hail- It should benefit your team but not to the extent where you cannot funtion around it. First off, get rid of castform, it's a piece of garbage. Next get rid of either DNite or Mamoswine since both do the same job and just give you another ice weak and bring in a physical wall and a spinner, I'd recommend starmie for the spinner since mixape destrys you too.
