The average weather conditions of an area, over a long period of time

Real World Example

Imagine trying to figure out someone's personality by observing them only on a single day. Just like a person's true character is revealed by their consistent behavior over time, rather than by their mood on any given day, the climate of an area is understood by examining its weather patterns over a long period, not just a single day. In this analogy, the single day is like a short-term weather event, while the long-term observation of mood and behavior parallels the study of climate, which requires looking at average weather conditions over many years.
