Detailed explanation-1: -The difference between weather and climate is a measure of time. Weather is what conditions of the atmosphere are over a short period of time, and climate is how the atmosphere “behaves” over relatively long periods of time.
Detailed explanation-2: -Weather refers to the local conditions on the scale of minutes, hours, days, and even months to years: you can have an extremely wet month, warm winter, or rainy decade. Climate is an average of weather conditions over 30 years or more, and can be evaluated for a single location, large area, or globally.
Detailed explanation-3: -The main difference between these two terms is the duration of time. For example, the weather is the day-to-day conditions and changes in the atmosphere. Whereas, the climate refers to the average weather condition of a place over a period of time.
