Weather refers to short-term atmospheric conditions in a place, such as temperature, wind, and precipitation, while climate describes average weather conditions over a long period of time. Isobars on maps represent air pressure, with warm, lighter air creating low pressure systems and cold, heavier air resulting in high pressure systems. Hurricanes form over warm ocean waters and require low pressure and high humidity to develop and intensify.
