Weather and Climate

Now that we know the difference between weather and climate, and some basic information about both, click on this link or this link for webpages with more interesting facts about climate change, storms, etc. (You may find the second one easier to understand). Looking at these sites is also a great way to help you prepare for the exam!

Here is a video by NASA about weather. (Note: the first minute isn't important--it's about France). But the video asks you some good questions you should already know the answers to. Try answering them and then continue watching the video to see if you're right. This video talks a lot about the weather in Britian and shows examples of places across the world with different climates.

We study and measure weather and climate in different ways. This video discusses some of those issues and why studying weather and climate is important.

Check this website out if you want to see what the weather is like all around the world.
