| What Is the Difference Between Weather and Climate? It’s a sweltering midsummer day. “It must be global warming,” mutters someone. But is it the Earth’s changing climate that has made the day so warm? Or, is it just the weather that is so unbearable? Climates are changing because our Earth is warming, according to the research of scientists. Does this contribute to a warm summer day? It may, however global climate change is actually much more complicated than that because a change in the temperature can cause changes in other weather elements such as clouds or precipitation.

| How are Wind formed? A big layer of air called the atmosphere surrounds the Earth. The air within this layer moves from place to place when it warms up or cools down. This moving air is known as wind. Winds move moisture and heat around the world and also produce much of our weather. Source : www.rcn27.dial.pipex.com | ||
Cloud Formation: How Do Clouds Form?Clouds are an interesting natural phenomena. Here is more information about Clouds and Cloud Formation. Any planet having an atmosphere in the solar system will have clouds. Clouds exist on the other planets like Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn. Clouds are condensed droplets suspended in the atmosphere above the surface of the Planet. Clouds are formed when air comes in contact with either air a surface that is cooling by radiation or a cold surface. The air then is cooled below it's saturation point. Therefore clouds can be formed along cold and warm fronts. Clouds can also be formed at the side of a mountain. The air will then cool as it rises higher into the atmosphere.Clouds can also be formed by the convection caused due to the warming of a surface by insolation.Clouds are therefore formed due to the cooling of water vapor in the air, and its condensing as part of the water cycle. Clouds consist of millions of water droplets as well as ice crystals. Source :www.buzzle.com | ||
Weather is the mix of events that happen each day in our atmosphere including temperature, rainfall and humidity. Weather is not the same everywhere. Perhaps it is hot, dry and sunny today where you live, but in other parts of the world it is cloudy, raining or even snowing. Everyday, weather events are recorded and predicted by meteorologists worldwide. 
Climate in your place on the globe controls the weather where you live. Climate is the average weather pattern in a place over many years. So, the climate of Antarctica is quite different than the climate of a tropical island. Hot summer days are quite typical of climates in many regions of the world, even without the affects of global warming.
