  1. Tiempo Tiempo can refer to the time or the weather, which makes sense philosophically if you think about it because the weather changes with the time, like the seasons.

  2. Let’s start with Weather • Remember, an idiom is an expression that cannot be immediately understood by analyzing its literal meaning. A few examples of idioms in English are: • to "drive someone crazy"to "lose it"to be "raining cats and dogs"

  3. Idioms explained • Spanish also has many idiomatic expressions. Although their literal translations sound odd to English speakers, they sound perfectly natural to native speakers. Here is one example: • Idiom: Hace mucho frío • Literally: It makes much cold • True Meaning: It is very cold

  4. In Spanish, there are a number of idiomatic expressions that employ the verb hacer (literal meaning: to do or to make), and are used to describe the weather. • ¿Qué tiempo hace? What's the weather like? • Hace frío. It's cold. • Hace calor. It's hot. • Hace viento. It's windy. • Hace sol. It's sunny. • Hace buen tiempo. The weather is good. • Hace mal tiempo. The weather is bad. • Hace fresco. It's brisk.

  5. Like the idioms that use tener, these idioms also contain a noun. • el frío • el calor • el viento • el sol • el tiempo • Because the idioms use nouns, they are modified by adjectives, not adverbs. • Hace mucho frío.It's very cold.

  6. There are also weather expressions that use the verb hay: • Hay niebla. It's foggy. • Hay neblina. It's misty. • Hay sol. The sun is shining. • Hay luna. The moon is out. • Hay relámpagos. It's lightning. • Hay humedad. It's humid. • Hay nubes. It's cloudy. • Hay lluvias torrenciales. It's pouring. • Hay un vendaval. There's a windstorm. • Hay granizo. It's hailing. • Hay lloviznas. It's sprinkling.

  7. Other weather expressions simply use a single verb: • Llueve.It is raining. or It rains.From the verb llover (to rain) • Nieva.It is snowing. or It snows.From the verb nevar (to snow) • Truena.It is thundering. or It thunders.From the verb tronar (to thunder) • Llovizna.It is drizzling. or It drizzles.From the verb lloviznar (to drizzle)

  8. Here are some common ways to ask about the weather: • ¿Qué tiempo hace? • ¿Qué clima hace? • ¿Cómo está el clima en ...? • ¿Cómo está el tiempo? • ¿Cómo está el clima hoy?
