The video explains how the atmosphere causes weather, driven by the sun's energy. It covers air pressure, which decreases with altitude, and how temperature differences affect atmospheric pressure and wind. Water vapor in the air leads to precipitation, with low-pressure systems causing strong winds and rain, while high-pressure systems bring clear weather. The Coriolis effect, due to Earth's rotation, influences wind direction, deflecting it right in the Northern Hemisphere and left in the Southern Hemisphere.
