Here in the Midwest, we're trained from birth to talk about weather

It's because there's a lot of farmers there. Weather is very important to farmers. Need rain, but not too much, alternating with sun, but not too much, and it can't be too hot or too cold.

Weather is important when your livelihood depends on it.

Yep, right on the nose! I grew up on a farm, but also I noticed that people talk about weather all the time, even in cities

Well, in (insert location here), we have a saying: "If you don't like the weather, wait 5 minutes."

Holy shit! We have that same saying here at [insert location #2]

Talking about, and caring about are different things.
