Whistling Tea Kettle Glass

How do I heat water to the proper temperature for green or white tea in a stainless steel kettle?
Before I had a kettle, when I used either a regular pot on the stove or a glass measuring cup in the microwave, I could tell by sight: stop when the bubbles form on the sides for white tea, when the tiny bubbles rise for green, and a proper boil for black tea. I had been planning on getting a glass stove top kettle, but my mother bought me a stainless steel whistling one instead. Is there a rule of thumb for time/temperature? My stove is gas.
Boil your water in a tea kettle and remove from heat. At this stage, the water temperature will be close to 200 F (93 C). Pour hot water into an empty teapot, filling it. Water temperature will drop to around 185 F (85 C). The teapot is pre-warmed at the same time, which is a nice added benefit.
