The term 'weather' describes the state of the air at a particular place and time - if it is warm or cold, wet or dry, and how cloudy or windy it is, for example. Ancient Civilizations thought that natural disasters were the work of the Gods. The weather still plays a big part in our lives today. It affects many of the things that we do, from the clothes we wear and the food we eat, to where we live and how we travel. As a result, the weather is of great interest to people everywhere, from meteorologists, the scientists who study it, to all people in our everyday lives. In fact, one of the main topics of conversation is often what the weather will do next, especially in areas such as Great Britain where the weather is very changeable and unpredictable (непредсказуемая). Think about how often you hear people discussing the weather. The climate may include four seasons of a year - spring, summer, autumn and winter - or a wet and a dry season. Our climate depends on our position on the earth and our distance from the sun.

Weather experts use computer technology and data from stations and satellites all over the world to predict the weather. By carefully monitoring weather conditions it is possible to predict when change is due - what we know as weather forecasting.
