Quote by Mark Twain

Climate is what we expect, weather is what we get.

Climate is what we expect, weather is what we get.

Summary

This quote acknowledges the difference between climate and weather. Climate refers to the long-term patterns and averages of weather conditions in a specific region over a period, such as years or decades, while weather represents short-term variations in temperature, precipitation, or wind at any given moment. The quote suggests that while we may have certain expectations for the overall climate of a place, the day-to-day weather can often deviate from those expectations. It reminds us that while climate change alters long-term climate patterns, it does not dictate specific weather events on a daily basis.
