Learn how weather is the combination of four factors—temperature, wind, precipitation, and sunlight and clouds—that occur at a given place and time in this lesson plan from WGBH. The mix of factors is changing all the time; therefore, weather conditions are changing all the time. Students can observe the four factors in various types of weather and identify evidence of weather factors in different weather conditions.
