Weather occurs in the troposphere, the lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere, extending from the surface up to about 8 to 15 kilometers (5 to 9 miles) high, depending on the location. This layer contains most of the atmosphere's mass, including water vapor and clouds, which are essential for weather phenomena. The troposphere is characterized by a decrease in temperature with altitude, contributing to weather changes.
