Hawaii's moderate temperatures, despite its proximity to the equator, are largely due to its oceanic climate and the influence of the Pacific Ocean. The surrounding waters help regulate temperatures, preventing extreme heat and cold. Additionally, trade winds provide a cooling effect, while the islands' varied topography creates microclimates that can also moderate temperatures. This combination results in warm but comfortable weather year-round.

Why might you find snow-capped mountains in Hawaii even though Hawaii is closer to the equator than Florida is?
The highest pont in Florida is only 345 ft above sea level. The "snow capped mountain" in Hawaii is Mauna Kea 13,796 ft above sea level. Air is colder at higher elevations. (I used to go to the observatory on Mauna Kea- people look at you funny when you get on an airplane in Hawaii carrying a parka!)
Can you avoid winter if you live near the equator?
Technically, winter still exists, it just doesn't have much of an impact. You don't have to live all that close to the equator to "avoid winter". Winter in south Florida or coastal Southern California basically means "you might want to wear a windbreaker at night", and Hawaii doesn't even experience that, despite its southernmost point being still well over a thousand miles from the equator.
