Climate

Explanation:

Climate refers to the long term changes that occur in a comparatively larger area in terms of precipitation, rainfall, temperature, humidity content, and wind. It reflects the weather condition of an extensively larger area. These changes are usually measured in terms of every 30 years on average. Some of the factors that affect the climate of an area are latitudes, height from the mean sea level, atmospheric pressure, topography of the area, ocean currents, presence of water bodies and vegetation-covered areas.

Thus, the climate of one place differs from one another.
