Weather

Weather refers to the atmospheric conditions in a specific place at a specific time. It encompasses various elements, including temperature, humidity, precipitation (such as rain or snow), wind speed and direction, and atmospheric pressure. Weather can change rapidly and can vary significantly from one location to another. It is typically measured using instruments and observed within short timeframes, ranging from hours to days. Weather is distinct from climate, which refers to the long-term average of weather patterns over an extended period, usually 30 years or more. Understanding weather is essential for daily activities, agriculture, transportation, and disaster preparedness.
