WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WHETHER AND CLIMATE?
DONT JUST GIVE ME THE BULL SHIT THAT THEY ARE TWO DIFFERENT CONCEPTS
Explain the difference between the concepts.
Weather: The state of the atmosphere at a particular time and place, usually in limited timescale. Weather is described in terms of variable conditions such as temperature, humidity, wind velocity, precipitation, and barometric pressure. Weather on Earth occurs primarily in the troposphere, or lower atmosphere, and is driven by energy from the Sun and the rotation of the Earth. The average weather conditions of a region over long periods of time are used to define a region's climate.
Climate: The general or average weather conditions of a certain region, including temperature, rainfall, and wind over long periods of time. Sometimes used without geographical restraints to describe long-term conditions on global scale and their variability. On Earth, local climate is most affected by latitude, the tilt of the Earth's axis, the movements of the Earth's wind belts, the difference in temperatures of land and sea, and topography. Human activity, especially relating to actions relating to the depletion of the ozone layer, is also an important factor.
Summary: Weather is the condition of the atmosphere on short term, local scale. Climate is the global or local long-term average condition of the atmosphere.
