Answer:

So many factors influence the climate. Some of them are ocean currents, latitude, distance from the ocean, elevation, etc.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance from the ocean influences the climate of the place. If the place is located on the coast, the climate will be colder and humidity will be higher.

Thanks to ocean currents the temperature can be changed. Ocean currents can low the temperature but also make it very high.

Latitude has an influence also regarding the temperature. Elevation, as it gets higher, the air above is falling, so the pressure decreases.

Regarding all the factors above, we can say that New York has hot summers, with high humidity and very cold winters, full of snow. Close to the river, the ground is muddy and going to the mountains, the ground is getting rocky
