Weather vs. Climate What’s the Difference?

WEATHER The current condition of the atmosphere Can change from hour to hour, day to day, season to season

CLIMATE The average weather conditions in a particular location or region at a particular time of the year Long term trends Usually measured over a period of 30 or more years

CLIMATOGRAPH - NEWARK

CLIMATE CHANGE Change in Earth’s climate Including weather patterns, ocean circulation, ice and snow cover, ecosystems

GLOBAL WARMING An increase in the surface temperature of the Earth Can be due to natural causes (Milankovitch Cycles) Recent and ongoing warming due to anthropogenic causes Burning fossil fuels
