Large bodies of water retain their heat (or lack of it) much longer than land; that is, they take longer to heat up, but stay warm longer. So, living near a lake or large river reduces or elevates the surrounding air tempurature. In the late summer, for instance, fog or mist is often seen over lakes and rivers in the early hours and into the morning, for the water is warmer than the air above it and that creates condensation.
