This document provides an introduction to a lesson on weather and climate. It outlines three lesson objectives: to define weather, understand combinations of weather factors, and describe jobs that require weather knowledge. It then defines weather as the atmosphere's state at a given time and lists factors like temperature, precipitation, wind, and clouds. Finally, it notes that some jobs depend on close monitoring of weather conditions.
