Etymology

The word climatologically comes from the word climate plus the parts -logy and -ally; climate originally comes from an old Greek word meaning 'region' or 'slope', and -logy is the same 'study of' you see in biology. So, climatologically means 'in a way' that relates to climate or the study of climate.
