It seems that the effects of Whitesnake's abilities are permanent even after the Stand is gone. After evolving into MiH, Pucci doesn't seem to retain C-Moon's powers so it is probably the same from Whitesnake to C-Moon, yet the discs remained then. Of course while Whitesnake's ability was gone its being remained in its evolved forms, so it could be that the discs only last as long as Pucci's Stand (whichever one) is alive. We never see Emporio use Weather Report after Pucci's death which supports the latter point. If they do only exist while Pucci's alive, then the loss of it doesn't seem to have a negative effect on people it's been inserted into. It would probably just have the same effect of the discs being ejected.
