Weather-1

The video explores the concept of weather, its impact on daily life, and how it is formed and measured. It explains the role of meteorologists in predicting weather using technology and nature's clues. The video also covers the formation of clouds, types of precipitation, and powerful weather phenomena like tornadoes and hurricanes. Finally, it discusses climate zones and their characteristics, highlighting the differences between tropical, polar, and temperate climates.
