Altitude affects climate in that the higher up you get, the more the temperature drops. The temperature goes down roughly 4 degrees Fahrenheit for every 1,000 feet you climb. Altitude is the subject's distance from the sea. This is why a lot of high-up places such as mountaintops often get snow for most of the year when other places do not, no matter how low the temperature drops.

As, one goes from the surface of the earth to higher altitudes, the atmosphere becomes less dense and temperature decreases. 

* The hills are therefore cooler during summer. 

* As we go higher and higher the temperature decreases 1 degree for every 165Km in height.
