Weather

Weather is the state of the atmosphere at any given time and place. Most weather takes place in the lower layer of the atmosphere. Weather occurs because our atmosphere is in constant motion.
Some determining factors of weather are temperature,, pressure, precipitation, fronts, clouds, and wind. Other more severe weather conditions are hurricanes, tornadoes, and thunderstorms.
Weather changes every season because of the Earth's tilt when it revolves around the sun.
Meteorology is the study of weather, and meteorologists are scientists who study and predict weather.
