What is Weather?

Weather is the state of the troposphere layer of the atmosphere at a place and time as regards to heat, dryness, sunshine, wind, rain, etc.

Daily changes in the weather are due to winds and storms

Seasonal changes are due to the Earth revolving around the sun at a tilt

Weather is caused by the uneven heating of the Earth.

But in a nutshell, the sun does not shine equally all over the earth, some places get more sunlight than others. This causes them to be warmer. Because some places are warmer, warm air rises. Because warm air rises, cold air takes its place. This causes the air to move causing changes in weather.
