When Jonas discovers how much the community controls the climate, it helps us know more about the community. Specifically, it tells us just how committed the community is to enforcing "sameness."
Jonas finds out that there used to be this thing called snow. And that there used to be sunshine and rain and things like that. Somehow, the community has learned how to control these things.
This is really most significant because it shows us how important sameness is. It shows that the community does not even want the weather to vary so that there will be less variation of any sort in their lives.
