The water is warmer in Miami than on the west coast primarily due to the Gulf Stream, a warm ocean current that flows north along the eastern coast of the U.S. This current raises sea temperatures in the Atlantic, particularly in Florida. In contrast, the west coast experiences the California Current, which is colder and flows southward, resulting in cooler ocean temperatures. Additionally, Miami's tropical climate contributes to warmer water temperatures year-round.

Why is the west coast of the US warmer in winter then the east coast?

On the West Coast the air moves from the Pacific Ocean to the land. When Winter comes, the water is warmer than the air. Air pushes on the warm water and transports it over the coastal regions, and that warms the climate temperature. then in the Summer the cycle is complete opposite.


Why is Miami hotter than Orlando?

Are you being serious? Obviously Miami is warmer than Orlando because of its location, which is closer to the equator. As you move closer to the equator, the warmer it gets. Its not too much of a jump in degrees though because they are both within the same proximity with not much variation (referencing the geographically location). Miami is also near the coast and although some may think that the water brings "cooler air," this is completely false. The water actually exemplifies the suns magnitude, causing it to be hotter. However, not by much, it varies anywhere from a 0.1 degrees to a 2 degrees difference.
