When I ask "Como es el clima", I think you are asking in general, about how the climate is, by example I would say "In Buenos Aires the weather is very humid, the winter is mild and we have no snow".
If you ask me "como esta el tiempo'" I'd assume you are asking me how is it now. So I would say "Today is a sunny day".
Now, this is so in Argentina and I guess it's the same in Latin America. I don't know if in Spain it's the same. Heidita'

Es como lo usaríamos en España, guillermo.
And it is the same as the distinction that is usually made in English between climate and weather.
Es como lo usaríamos en España, guillermo.
If you mean to ask how the weather is today (as opposed to the climate), you could say:
¿Qué tiempo hace'
¿Cómo es le clima? What is the climate like?
¿Qué tiempo hace? What's the weather like'
It is correct, because in spanish, there are some nouns that are masculine but end in "a"
For example:
el día (the day), el clima (the climate), el programa (the program)....
Here an example:
¿Cómo es el clima en tu país en estos momentos?
