How does an area's weather differ from the area's climate?

Asked by ClarisaHettinger787

Answer (3)

Weather can change from hour-to-hour and day-to-day, and can differ based on atmospheric changes and humidity, among other factors. Climate is the average of an area's weather over a period of time - a pattern that typically occurs over many years.

weater is a dynamic factor. it changes from time to time and even many times during the same day. climate is static. it is based upon the data collected about weather for 40 to 50 years

Weather refers to the short-term atmospheric conditions at a specific time and place, while climate refers to the long-term average of these conditions over many years. Weather can change rapidly, while climate provides a more stable view of typical patterns in a location. Understanding this difference helps us better grasp both day-to-day weather changes and overall climate trends.
