How does nearness to water affect the climate?

Answer 1

the closer you are to water in the winter the colder it is, due to the winds blowing off it. although the closer you are to water in the summer the warmer it is because water retains heat better than land.

Answer 2

Oceans moderate the temperatures of nearby land because water heats and cools much more slowly than land. Therefore, winds coming from the ocean usually deter hot or cold extremes in coastal regions like California, Florida, and other states. However, places toward the center of a country or continent will often have these hot and cold extremes during summer and winter. This occurs because they are secluded from the oceans and do not get the moderated weather from the oceans.

Answer 3

one way a climate is affected by the proximity (closeness) of water , is that it raises the precipitation level and makes it relatively high compared to a continental climate.

Answer 4

Compared to land, water is a great heat sink ... thus climate near water is always milder than in areas far from water.
