It is quite possible to duo Mega Abomasnow in Sunny or Sunny weather, particularly with the use of mega evolved Fire type Pokémon. In all other cases, around 3-5 trainers with strong and high level Fire type Pokémon can take down Mega Abomasnow with relative ease, no matter what the weather in the game is like.

A note on catching Mega Abomasnow

You cannot catch Abomasnow in its Mega-Evolved form from the Raid as any Mega Raid boss is always catchable in its base form and as such, the CP ranges are for a regular Abomasnow.
