Why do you check for temperature, rather than weather?

Does it help knowing the changes in temperature outside?

You can tell if it's raining by looking out the window, but you can't really see the temperature.

I can take an umbrella if it'll rain soon but what can I do by knowing that temperature will rise by 1°C in two hours?

Genuinely curious.
