It refers to the expected temperature and precipitation, rather than the actual conditions. 'Precipitation' most commonly refers to rain, but it can also mean snow, sleet and hail. Weather is the day to day atmospheric condition of a place, including temperature, wind and precipitation. This can change frequently and can be described at a localised level. This title examines the aspects that make up the weather and climate of the British Isles. It also discusses several aspects of our weather in more depth, such as depressions, anticyclones and tropical storms. We will also explore whether people can influence weather and climate. Chapter Five deals with how humans interact with weather and climate, and Chapter Six outlines the issues surrounding global warming.
