How are continental climates different from coastal climates?
With coastal climate, the close proximity to the water evens out temperature swings and provides moisture. Continental climate can be dryer and see bigger differences in temperature.
Why do some coastal cities experience a moderation of temperature from water while others do not?

How does a coastal area have a pleasant weather even on a hot day?
in the coastal areas the temperature is naturally low due to the presence of water.this results in the increase of humidity in that particular area.i.e the presence of water in the atmosphere makes the weather cool. this is why even in the hot day the people in the coastal areas don't feel hot.
What is the difference in temperature between land and water surfaces?
As I've learnt, in summer the ocean will absorb heat slower than the land, so the ocean and coastal area will hv a relatively cooler temperature compare with the inland area. However in winter, it will be slightly different. In winter, the land release the temperature rapidly, so the temperature drops. And meanwhile the ocean release heat in a very slow speed, so the ocean stays warm, so the warmer the temperature in the coastal area compare with the inland areas. hope i solve your problem

How would you expect winter temperature to differ in coastal city on the same latitude as the interior city?
The temperature would be warmer for a coastal city during winter than that of a interior city because the water around the coastal city helps keep it warm
