Temperatures around the Earth can vary greatly depending on a number of factors such as geography, climate, time of day, and season.

At any given moment, temperatures can vary by hundreds of degrees Celsius between the hottest and coldest places on Earth. The coldest place on Earth is Antarctica, where temperatures can drop as low as -90°C (-130°F) in the winter. In contrast, the hottest place on Earth is the Lut Desert in Iran, where temperatures have reached up to 71°C (160°F) in the summer.

Additionally, temperature differences can also be observed between regions with different climate zones. For example, the temperature difference between the equator and the poles can be quite significant, with temperatures in tropical regions typically staying warm year-round while polar regions experience extreme cold during the winter months.

Overall, the temperature differences around the Earth can be quite large and vary depending on a wide range of factors.

Weather vs Climate

Weather is what you see or experience outside at any time on any day.

So, for example, it may be 75° degrees and sunny or it could be 20° degrees with heavy snow. That’s what the weather is. We can discuss long term forecasts of what the weather will be, or what happened last year in this month. It’s all weather, but it is not the same as climate.

How is Weather different than Climate?

Climate is the average of “weather” over an accepted period of time which is normally 30 years or more. When people discuss changing climate they are describing changes from the normal averages.

What causes the Weather?

The two most important influences in weather are the Sun and Earth’s atmosphere. The Sun heats objects on Earth and this heat is absorbed by the atmosphere. The absorption may include water vapor which creates the clouds and can attribute to rain and other types of precipitation. Other factors ( variables ) such as high and low pressure effect the winds and storm systems.
