The term weather describes the state of the atmosphere at a given point in time and geographic location. Weather forecasts provide an estimate of the conditions we expect to experience in the near future and are based on statistical models of similar conditions from weather history. Temperature, rain, snow, fog, cloudiness, and strength of wind are all different components of our weather. Severe weather events such as tornadoes, tropical storms, hurricanes, cyclones, floods, lightning strikes and extremes of heat or cold can be costly and deadly. In addition to weather and forecasts other atmospheric processes that effect our planet are ozone levels, changing climate conditions, and variables outside Earth's atmosphere such as solar winds.
Weather warnings are important forecasts because they are used to protect life and property. Forecasts based on temperature and precipitation are important to agriculture, and therefore to commodity traders within stock markets. Temperature forecasts are used by utility companies to estimate demand over coming days. People use weather forecasts to determine what to wear on a given day or to plan events. Since outdoor activities are severely curtailed by heavy rain, snow and the wind chill, forecasts can be used to plan activities around these events, and to plan ahead and survive them.
The climate is the common, average weather conditions at a particular place over a long period of time. Weather history and weather records and averages are used to determine the climate of a particular part of the world.
It is the goal of Weather.org to help educate and plan for severe weather events using official data, forecasts, maps, charts and storm tracking, in order to promote public safety and save lives.
