The kanji 晴 is a phono-semantic compound (形声文字, keisei moji). The left side is the radical of "sun" (日, hi), and the right side is the phonetic component 青 (sei), which provides the sound and hints at the meaning of "blue" or "clear". Therefore, 晴 visually combines the sun with a clear sky, representing a bright, sunny day. The combination suggests sunshine breaking through, which is associated with clearing up.
