Answer 2

Weather is the condition of the atmosphere at a particular place over a short period of time, whereas climate refers to the weather pattern, using statistical data, of a place over a long period to yield meaningful averages. Meteorology studies weather, while climatology studies climate; both are atmospheric sciences.
