What makes west coast cooler?

The cool temperature along the West Coast is largely due to the cold ocean currents that flow southwards along the coast. Additionally, the marine layer, a thick fog that forms from the interaction of cold ocean water and warm air, also contributes to the cooler climate in this region. The prevailing westerly winds off the Pacific Ocean bring cooler air onto the coast, further lowering temperatures.
