Meteorology is the study of our planet’s weather.  It’s about the different types of weather we have on the planet and what causes them, and how they change over time.  For instance, how does weather cause changes to the atmosphere?  What is a hurricane, and how does it affect the temperature in the areas near and around it?  How does the weather cause our planet to change over time?  What do patterns of our weather tell us about the position and movement of the Earth?  I hope that helps.  Is there anything else you want to know about meteorology?

Does it also analyze the day-to-day changes in the atmosphere?
user
Yes, meteorology is also used to analyze the air we breathe.  The pressure and temperature, the rate of movement of air, and other physical aspects of the atmosphere are studied by meteorology.  It also looks into how all of these physical features affect the amount of wind we have and the impact of wind on weather.
