When I was doing short workouts it did not matter much, but I recently did a 60 mile bike ride that started in the early morning and finished in the afternoon. Garmin Connect shows the temp at 78deg F (which I am sure was accurate for the beginning of the day) but when I finished it was close to 90deg F. It would be more interesting for me to see the conditions under which I finished a long workout then when I started.

You could get a Tempe sensor, and with it paired to your watch (assuming your watch works with a Tempe), you get a graph of the temp during your entire activity. Plus, it's the temp where you actually are, and not the nearest airport, etc...
