Which of the following quantities is likely to show more temporal autocorrelation: daily rainfall or daily temperature? Why?

Temporal correlation is characterized as the association among the consecutive or sequential lags of one same variable.

As per the question, 'Daily Temperatures' are probable to display more temporal autocorrelation as compared to the daily rainfall. This is because the temperatures recorded on daily basis would express the relation between the succeeding temperature values of the close locations and the locations that are farther. It is more probable that places located nearer to one another would fall under the similar temperature bracket while the amount of rainfall they receive might vary.
