Le temps

As a follow-up to yesterday's météo, I was reminded that météo usually refers more to the forecast than the current weather, which leads me to:
le temps ('p' and 's' are silent, so this is pronounced like 'tan') = weather (it also means time)
E.g.
  • quel sale temps! = what awful weather!
  • le mauvais temps = bad weather
  • quel temps fait-il? = what's the weather like?
