Weather describes the condition of the atmosphere over a short period of time, while climate is how the atmosphere behaves over relatively long periods of time.

Weather is only about temperatures, while climate includes patterns of precipitation.

Climate can be changed by human activities, but weather cannot.

Weather occurs only in the troposphere, while climate occurs in all layers of the atmosphere.
