In regards to the latest climate data, the NWS climate summary for the metro Atlanta area has recently been updated with statistics from September 2025. An article discussing the difference between climate and weather has been referenced, providing clear explanations for readers.
Weather is defined as the conditions experienced at a specific point in time and space, such as a day that may be sunny at 75 degrees or frigid at 20 degrees with snow. Conversely, climate is the long-term average of that weather, representing expected conditions such as snowy winters in the Northeast and humid summers in the Southeast.
When discussing climate change, this pertains to the alterations in long-term averages of daily weather patterns. Weather can fluctuate dramatically from moment to moment, while climate reflects the averages over extended periods.
