If you don't define ground temps in the IDF, then it will use those from the weather file.

Not exactly, Jean.  If you don't define ground temperatures, it will use a constant, default temperature (as noted in the warning).

Discussion on ground heat transfer with EnergyPlus should be found in the Auxiliary Programs document.  I believe some new ground contact algos have been included in recent updates.
