Etymology

The term 'meteorologic' originates from the Greek word 'meteōrōlogia', which translates to 'the study of things high in the air'. This is a compound of 'meteōron', meaning 'that which is in the air', combined with 'logia', which means 'study'. The word 'meteorology' was first used in the 14th century and became a recognized scientific field in the 19th century as advances in technology and understanding of atmospheric sciences evolved. The suffix '-ic' denotes relating to or characterized by, thus making 'meteorologic' pertain specifically to the field and practices within meteorology. As scientific methods and technological advancements progressed, the understanding of meteorologic phenomena grew, leading to more precise forecasting and weather prediction throughout the 20th and 21st centuries.
