Morphology

conditions = condition (transparent) = condition + s

The plural suffix '-s' is a regular inflection; 'conditions' is the straightforward plural of 'condition'.

Etymology

Conditions comes from Latin parts con- 'together' and dicere 'to say', the same root you see in predict. So when we talk about weather conditions, we mean the current 'state' of the air and sky that people 'say' or 'predict'.
