what is climate?

Answer 1

Climate (from ancient Greek: κλίμα, "Clime") is commonly defined as the weather averaged over a long period of time. For practical uses the standard averaging period is 30 years, but other periods may be used depending on the purpose.

In scientific usage "climate" also includes statistics other than the average, such as the magnitudes of day-to-day or year-to-year variations. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) glossary definition is:

Climate in a narrow sense is usually defined as the “average weather”, or more rigorously, as the statistical description in terms of the mean and variability of relevant quantities over a period of time ranging from months to thousands or millions of years. The classical period is 30 years, as defined by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO). These quantities are most often surface variables such as temperature, precipitation, and wind. Climate in a wider sense is the state, including a statistical description, of the climate system.

Answer 2

Climate is the overall patern of weather in place or area.

Answer 3

The average temperature of a region along with the amount or precipitation, days of sunshine, air pressure, and humidity.
