Answer 2

FACTORS AFFECTING WEATHER:

• The water absorbs and releases heat at a slower rate than the land surface.
• Coastal areas tend to be much cooler than inland areas as the cold winds from the sea rise up, it lowers down the surrounding area thus creating a low-temperature range during the summers.
• During winters, land releases heat quicker than the coastal areas leading to more cold winters.
• In inland are the far-off areas from the water bodies that experience the high-temperature range leading to hot summers and chilling winters.
• Example - Goa is a coastal plain whereas Uttar Pradesh is an inland state. The former experiences milder winters than the latter because it is situated close to the ocean.
