he ocean circulation within the different basins contribute to the sea surface temperature in the regions. Along the eastern boundary of an ocean (along California for example), the surface currents carry cold ocean waters to warm areas, which cools the region. On the Eastern United States, the Gulf Stream (a Western Boundary Current) carries warm water along the coast up into the high arctic latitudes. This provides the humidity famously described fort the East Coast and the keeps the UK and Scandinavia relatively warm. Warmer sea surface temperatures (SST) means more water vapor in the atmosphere- so higher humidity.
