Bedeutung
Making small talk about good weather.
Kultureller Hintergrund
Small talk about weather is considered 'lịch sự' (polite) and 'dễ gần' (approachable). It avoids the 'investigative' nature of other common questions like 'Where are you going?' Hanoians are particularly fond of this phrase during the 'mùa thu' (autumn), which is the pride of the city. Mentioning the weather then is a way to share local pride. In the south, where it's usually hot, 'Trời đẹp' often implies it's 'mát' (cool) or that the rain has finally stopped. In the countryside, this phrase might be followed by a comment on the crops, showing the lingering connection between weather and agriculture.

The 'Ạ' Rule

Yes, in many contexts 'Trời' or 'Ông Trời' refers to a higher power, but in this phrase, it just means the weather/sky.
'Nhỉ' is for checking agreement on a fact. 'Nhé' is for getting agreement on a suggestion (e.g., 'Let's go, okay?').
