What is the difference between weather and climate?

• Weather refers to long-term atmospheric patterns; climate refers to short-term conditions.

• Weather is short-term atmospheric conditions; climate is long-term patterns.

• Weather and climate are the same; they both refer to atmospheric conditions.
