Central Russia. (Its climate is continental). The weather in France, especially near the Atlantic ocean, is influenced by the mild temperatures and it is rare to have very low temperatures there.
Why is LA so smoggy?
smog traps in heat from the sun rays. it gets worse during the summer because LA is more exposed to the sun, making the temperatures rise and trap moisture making LA hot and humid
Why aren't metamorphic rocks 'unmetamorphosed' as temperatures drop?
Metamorphic rocks are created when compressed at high temperatures, as temperatures drop, they just start to solidify more, instead of becoming liquid again. A similar process is drying clay, as the clay dries, it becomes harder.
Is the autumnal equinox at the same time every year?
No, it moves slightly forwards and backwards in time, but within a 12 hour period due to the Earth's wobble that is separate from the Procession of the Earth's poles. So in some years it can occur on the 20th of September, and other years on the 21st.

The earths axis is not tilted directly toward the sun.
How do nearby bodies of water help keep the climate of certain areas mild?

Why do we have more daytime hours during summer than in winter?
Between the vernal equinox and the autumnal equinox, more than half of the hemisphere is illuminated by the sun, peaking at 63% illumination on the summer solstice. Likewise, between the autumnal equinox and the vernal equinox, less than half of the hemisphere is illuminated by the sun, reaching the minimum of 37% illumination on the winter solstice. As the Earth rotates, you are rotating through more sunlight and less darkness during the spring and summer months, and you are rotating through more darkness and less sunlight during the fall and winter months. Since the speed at which the Earth rotates is constant, you are spending more time in the sunlight in the spring and summer and more time in the darkness in the fall and winter.
Do the air currents from the atlantic have trouble reaching eastern Europe?
Yes, they do. They also keep temperatures more mild in western Europe and are warmed by the Gulf Stream.
During the autumnal equinox what does the sun do?
The Sun doesn't do anything at such. The Autumnal equinox is more down to the position of the Earth on its orbit of the Sun. The sun is directly over the equator and the amount of daylight and darkness is about equal around the world.
Does the air current form the Atlantic keep temperatures more mild in western Europe?
Yes, they do. They also have difficulty reaching eastern Europe and are warmed by the Gulf Stream.
How do particles move during lower temperature?
Particles will move more slowly at lower temperatures.
Why is Edmonton and Halifax forecast the same?
Because Halifax and Edmonton have similar summer temperatures (mild) but Halifax has much more humidity which makes it feel much warmer than Edmonton.
What is the meaning of Be temperate in all things?
