Question

in Delhi
summers are very hot and winters are very cold while
Mumbai experiences moderate summer and winters. Why ? Explain
with proper reasoning​

Answer 1

Delhi experiences extreme climates due to its landlocked status while Mumbai is located near the coast making the climate there moderate.

Explanation:

• Delhi is 239 meters above sea level. Delhi has high levels of humidity in the summers and low levels of humidity in the winters. This humid air plays a very major role in keeping the temperature extreme in both seasons.

• Due to such a continental climate, both air conditions and heaters are used in the city throughout the year.

• Mumbai experiences a slight breeze from the sea which drops the temperature.
