After arriving to the morning shift; and after completing the pre-duty checks; I was assigned to work Ground Control West; Ground Control East; Clearance Delivery; and Flight Data.  This task was very daunting and unsafe to work all combined as it is the time of a departure push mixed with arrivals and maintenance repositions about the airport while also giving clearances; marking flight progress strips; updating the ATIS; etc.  The weather was also IFR; protecting airport critical areas; and heavy in trail spacing from ZZZ Center and ZZZ TRACON because of thunderstorms in the vicinity.  I felt overwhelmed with the amount of tasks to complete and think that safety was compromised and efficiency was depleted.Staffing needs to immediately be visited; and the ability to call in overtime without the many approvals that are needed.  Safety is number one; and I feel that we are not taking care to ensure safe operations exist.  Almost all employees are working mandatory 6-day work weeks with no end in sight and working today from XAam until XHpm with 4 controllers is not safe.
Ground Controller reported safety concerns with working combined positions; being overworked and under staffed especially in weather conditions.
