Brief Explanations

Weather refers to short - term atmospheric conditions, while climate is the long - term average of weather conditions. "Wisconsin had an unseasonably large snowstorm last week", "Thursday's low of - 20°C is the coldest temperature ever recorded for that city", "The high this afternoon was 25°C", and "Tuesday afternoon a tornado touched down in Iowa" describe short - term events, so they are weather. "Much of central Australia is desert" and "January is usually Omaha's coldest month" describe long - term conditions, so they are climate. "I am moving to southern Arizona because it is warm and sunny" can be seen as referring to both the long - term climate (warm and sunny climate) and short - term perception of weather.
