Climate is the long-term weather pattern in a region, typically averaged over 30 years. More rigorously, it is the mean and variability of meteorological variables over a time spanning from months to millions of years. Some of the meteorological variables that are commonly measured are how hot or cold.

Humidity, atmospheric pressure, wind, and rain and snow. In a broader sense, climate is the state of the components of the climate system. Including the air around a planet, hydrosphere, cryosphere, lithosphere and biosphere and the interactions between them.
The climate of a location is affected by its latitude. Longitude, terrain, height, land use and nearby water bodies and their currents. Climates can be classified according to the average and typical variables.
Most commonly how hot or cold and rain and snow. The most widely used classification scheme is the Köppen climate classification. The Thornthwaite system, in use since 1948.
Incorporates evapotranspiration along with how hot or cold and rain and snow information and is used in studying biological diversity and how climate change affects it. The major classifications in Thornthwaite's climate classification are microthermal, mesothermal, and.
