Is a telescope used for weather?

An optical telescope cannot be used during cloudy days. Of course, this assumes that the telescope is located somewhere on the Earth's surface and therefore subject to weather. Since clouds obscure the sky - and any heavenly object otherwise visible - the optical telescope will be unable to see anything. A radio telescope, however, can see through clouds, simply because clouds do not block or cause significant interference to radiowaves reaching the Earth's surface from space.


Why can't a radio telescope be used on a cloudy night?

A radio telescope can be used on a cloudy night, because its signal can move through the clouds and rain mostly unaffected and still gather data.
