天时 (tiān shí) — favorable weather and climate (especially as a condition for farming or planning); timeliness; opportune moment (the idea that time itself is a favorable factor)

Often paired with 地利 and 人和 in the saying '天时不如地利,地利不如人和' to name the three conditions for success: favorable timing, place, and people. Refers to the right moment or weather, not opportunity in the everyday sense.
