time

Explanation:

weather is the atmospheric condition of a place over a short period of time, while climate is the weather condition prevailing in an area over a long period of time. From the two definitions above we can see that weather is the condition over a short period of time while climate is over longer periods, therefore the primary difference between them is time.
