Weather

Weather refers to the atmospheric conditions in a specific place at a specific time. It encompasses various elements such as temperature, humidity, precipitation (like rain or snow), wind speed and direction, and atmospheric pressure. Weather can change rapidly and is typically observed over short periods, such as minutes, hours, or days. It differs from climate, which describes the long-term average of weather patterns in a particular region over extended periods, usually 30 years or more. Weather can impact daily life, influencing activities, planning, and safety. Meteorologists study weather patterns and make forecasts to help individuals and communities prepare for and respond to various weather conditions.
