When you're in a cold place in December and you're planning a vacation for February, are you interested in a location's weather or climate?

I think you would be more interested in the location's weather than the climate because if you are wanting to get away from the winter cold for awhile then you would probably plan to go somewhere close to the equator, where it is warmer. A location's weather could be scattered or generally misinterpreted as weather can be random at times.
