Valleys tend to be warmer than surrounding areas due to their topography, which can trap heat and create microclimates. During the day, sunlight warms the valley floor more efficiently, while at night, the heat can be retained longer in the lower areas. However, temperature variations can occur depending on factors such as elevation, vegetation, and proximity to water bodies. Overall, valleys often experience milder temperatures compared to higher elevations.
