Just to clear things up, I'm doing a blog for my Science project.
It's dealing with the weather and effects of it.
I'm here to clear up the terms of Weather and Climate, for which will go to the wikipedia to get a good understand of the subject.
Weather- The state of the atmosphere, to the degree that its going to be either hot or cold, stormy, or calm, wet or dry, cloudy or clear. Most of the weather occurs in the troposphere just below the stratosphere. Weather is generally day-to-day temperature and precipitation, wheres climate (we'll go over climate soon) is the term for the average atmospheric conditions over longer periods of time. When it's used without "qualification" then weather is understood to be the weather of our Earth.

Climate- The Statistics of Temperature, Atmospheric pressure, Precipitation, Wind,and Humidity,the atmospheric particle count and of course other meteorological elemental measurements in any given region over long periods. Climate is contrasted to weather in which is the present condition of the elements (the ones we just went over) and variations over short periods.

Well I was searching the web and decided to see exactly why everyone cares about the weather?? A lot of people I know personally don't even bother checking the weather report the look at their window and plan around that. Which isn't always their greatest plan... Anyways I found that many people are concerned or pay more attention for it, due to work. Yeah whether they work in a building or out and about. They care about the weather, it can effect their way of getting to and from work (seeing that this is Canada.) it effects on others to show up for work as well, and did you happen
to notice the depending on the weather you will either get things done more or hardly anything. Like right now the weather is cloudy outside and very cold, where I am. And I have less of a desire to go outside and do anything, now if it was sunning and beautiful outside I would be staring at the window wanting to go out and enjoy it. (It's not always exactly this way, but weather has an effect on people in situations like the one I just wrote). Another reason why people actually care about the weather is plans to spend their time outside in the weather, Like camping, skiing, swimming, snowman building, among many other outdoor activities. So far we've gone over mostly the moods and what it would effect depending on the weather, but we haven't actually talked on people who have to study weather for either their hobbies or their job, they take the most interest in it. Such as farmers do such the same as well, the are looking for patterns, for something out of the normal.They are seeing our world change by studying it. Have you notice the change in our earth?? Well they have either seen it for a while, or see more to it then we do.
We should really pay attention to our weather, and the changes that come with it, its our earth don't you want to know how to take care of it?
