Why wind blows from ocean to land in winter?

Hello...
In winter wind blows from the ocean to land because, due to water's higher specific heat than land, it cools down much slower than land.
That's why at night, the air over water could be warmer than the air over land. Land is developed by high pressure and water is developed by low pressure.

here's Ur answer
there are several reasons behind the wind blowing from ocean to land on winter season
I'm listing here some
Reason 1
# during the winter season there develops a high pressure area near the oceans and a low pressure area around land
and it is a hard fact that winds always blow from areas of high pressure to area of low pressure
Reason 2
# this reason is connected with the first one
because high pressure and low pressure develops due to rise and fall in temperature during the winter season respectively
therefore winds start blowing from water to land
Reason 3
# the third main reason behind this is the specific heat capacity of water which is higher than that of the land due to which it cools faster and thus the temperature drops increasing the pressure on water and thus the winds blow from the ocean to the land.
the consequences of this is seen by the formation of cyclones and anticyclones
tsunami can also happen due to this
