Clement यानी mild, दयालु; clemency यानी दया। आगे in (not) लगा दिया तो inclement — जो mild नहीं, कठोर और सख़्त। इसीलिए यह अक्सर weather के साथ आता है: inclement weather यानी ख़राब, तूफ़ानी मौसम।

Clement means mild and kind, the same family as clemency (mercy). Put 'in' (not) in front and you get inclement: not mild, harsh and severe. That is why SSC so often shows it with weather: inclement weather is rough, stormy weather.
