Seasonal Weather Patterns

Seasonal weather patterns are the regular changes in climate that occur throughout the year due to the Earth's tilted axis and orbit around the Sun. During different times of the year, one hemisphere tilts toward or away from the Sun, causing variations in sunlight and temperature. This results in distinct seasons—spring, summer, fall, and winter—each with characteristic weather: warmer, sunnier days in summer, and cooler, often colder conditions in winter. These patterns influence precipitation, wind, and other atmospheric conditions, creating predictable climate cycles that shape ecosystems, agriculture, and human activities worldwide.
