Climate is long - term average weather. Let's analyze each option:

• "A seven day forecast on the news" is short - term, so it's weather, not climate.
• "A series of tornadoes ripping through a town in Arkansas" is a short - term event, so it's weather.
• "A category 3 hurricane in Florida" is a short - term event, so it's weather.
• "The average amount of rainfall in New York City from 1918 - 2018" is a long - term average, so it's climate.
