Weather is the condition of the atmosphere at a particular place over a short period of time. For example, on a particular day in Singapore, the weather is warm in the afternoon. But later in the day, when there are clouds blocking Sun's rays, the weather would become cooler.
While weather describes the condition of the atmosphere at a particular time, climate refers to the weather pattern of a place over a long period, long enough to yield meaningful averages. For example, although the weather in Singapore may be cool and dry today, Singapore's climate is hot and wet.
