If you want to do your B&W shooting in color you can apply filters in
PhotoShop as you're doing the conversion to B&W. The only thing you
can't do after the fact is simulate a polarizer. For example, you could
simultate a very strong red filter by choosing to convert the luminosity
of only the red channel to B&W while discarding the other two channels
entirely. Since there's little red in a blue sky the sky would appear
much darker (as though it had been a deep blue) and the clouds would be
very bright in comparison and thus they would be accentuated by the
strong contrast.
You could easily spend a day or two with PhotoShop exploring the
different methods of converting a color shot to B&W.
