Weather

Weather refers to the atmospheric conditions in a specific place at a specific time. It encompasses various elements, including temperature, humidity, precipitation (rain, snow, sleet, etc.), wind speed and direction, and atmospheric pressure. Weather can change rapidly and is often characterized by short-term variations. It is distinct from climate, which describes the long-term average of weather conditions over a significant period in a larger area. Weather is typically reported for daily or hourly intervals and can include phenomena such as storms, sunshine, clouds, and fog. Understanding weather is essential for everyday life, influencing activities such as travel, agriculture, and outdoor events.
