Why can't we see weather temperature?
Wasn't weather temperature always included in previous seasons exp packs? You could even see temperature for the upcoming days in the calendar.

The Sims 3 had specific temperatures, which was very nice IMO. Although they were a bit wonky, it was a great idea.
In The Sims 2 it was done entirely different. You could only get an idea of what temperature it was from a bar next to the sim's face in the control panel. That bar was only telling the Sim's temperature and would change depending on where your sim was, so when indoors you didn't even have a vague idea of what it's like outdoors.
I don't know how I feel about TS4 Seasons changing this. Obviously, I haven't played it. I don't like simplification, but I would argue that TS2's system is worse, at least IMO. And there might be benefits to the vagueness... Meaning I can imagine what hot is. A lot of people that the mid 70s/80s are nice, but I find they range from uncomfortably warm to hot, so I could easily read 'hot' as in the mid 70s/80s or above if I played The Sims 4 Seasons.
