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.
