Why are hurricanes in the eastern US more likely in autumn than in spring?
In colder seasons, the ocean holds a lot more warmth. This is because the land takes all the warmth in warmer seasons. Hurricanes develop only when ocean water is warm enough. The spring is warmer than autumn. So, the ocean is warmer in autumn than it is in spring. This means that hurricanes in the eastern United States are more likely in the spring than the summer.

Why is the lakefront colder in the summer?
Large bodies of water have a cooling effect in summer and a 'warming' (less cold really) effect in winter time. The reason is the Ocean is a huge mass much bigger than the land. So this means there is a lag between when the ocean starts warming and when that warming actually takes effect. The result of this is that the Ocean in Autumn is actually warmer than in summer, and warmer in winter than in spring!
