Weather systems are large-scale atmospheric phenomena that drive the day-to-day variations in weather conditions, influenced by factors like air pressure, temperature, and humidity. Understanding these systems is crucial for predicting weather patterns and mitigating the impacts of severe weather events.

Air pressure is the force exerted by the weight of air molecules on a surface, and it decreases with altitude because there is less air above to exert pressure. It is crucial for weather patterns, aviation, and the functioning of various biological and mechanical systems on Earth.

Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a substance, which determines how hot or cold that substance feels. It plays a critical role in various scientific disciplines, influencing physical states, chemical reactions, and biological processes.

Humidity is the concentration of water vapor present in the air, which significantly influences weather patterns, human comfort, and various ecosystems. It is typically measured in terms of relative humidity, absolute humidity, and specific humidity, each providing different insights into atmospheric moisture content.
