Answer:
Warm ocean currents heat the air above the water and carry the warm air to the land, increasing the temperature of the coastal region. ... For example, cities along the west coast of the United States are affected by a cool ocean current that carries cool air toward the California coast.

Warm and cold ocean currents can affect the climate of coastal regions, but only when local winds blow in from the sea. Warm currents heat the air over the ocean and bring higher temperatures over land. Cold currents can lower air temperatures and can bring colder temperatures over land.
