i'm flying around in europe and ATC has never given me the temperature or an update on the temperature before startup. Of course you need to stay inside your environmental envelope and temperature is needed for various performance calculations, use of engine anti ice as pointed out be zerozero, etc. for engine start up itself i am more concerned about the wind direction since a strong tailwind might lead to a start malfunction.
