Because land masses emit radiation causing the land to cool. Land cools quicker than water. The farther north you go toward the poles the less direct sun radiation you receive therefore the heat for the sun is less intense. the combination of earth emitting radiation and less intense solar radiation causes the higher latitudes to be colder.

The Uplift
Hurricanes depend on very warm ocean water to sustain themselves. The waters of higher latitudes are not warm enough.
high latitudes are blocked by clouds and lower latitude are not blocked by anything
Latitudes farther from the equator have higher numbers. The equator is 'zero' latitude, and the poles are 90 degrees north and south.
Climates at higher elevations tend to be cooler and have lower average temperatures compared to lower elevations. This is because as you go higher in elevation, the air pressure decreases, leading to a drop in temperature. Higher elevations also usually receive more precipitation, as the air cools and condenses more readily. Additionally, higher elevations often have more variable weather patterns and experience stronger winds.
Water evaporate faster at higher elevations.
Mainly because regions at higher latitudes receive less sunlight.
At higher elevations the boiling point is lower.

The northwest has a higher land elevation than the southeast.
The air is thinner than air in lower elevations.
Colorado is higher then Florida
On a map of average annual temperature why are the lower latitudes so much warmer than the higher latitudes?
