Climate & weather: what's the difference?There is a variety of ways to explain the difference. Here are a few that may shed some light:
Climate is what you expect; weather is what you get.
Climate is about long-term records, trends and averages;weather is the day to day experience.Climate is the sum or synthesis of all the weather recorded over a long period of time. It tells us the average or most common conditions, or extremes, or counts of events, or frequencies. Weather is a description of conditions over a short period of time - a "snap shot" of the atmosphere at a particular time.If weather is the watch then climate is the calendar.
