Meteorology is the scientific study of the atmosphere and its phenomena, particularly in relation to weather and climate. It involves the analysis of atmospheric conditions, including temperature, humidity, wind patterns, and precipitation, to understand and predict weather events. Meteorologists utilize various tools and technologies, such as satellites, radar, and computer models, to collect data and forecast weather conditions. The field encompasses various branches, including synoptic meteorology (study of weather systems), climatology (study of climate and its change), and atmospheric physics. Meteorology plays a crucial role in everyday life, impacting agriculture, transportation, and disaster preparedness.
