This document discusses the difference between weather and climate and some key factors that influence climate, including ocean currents, wind currents, elevation, latitude, and landforms. Weather is short-term while climate considers conditions over the long-term. Factors like proximity to oceans, elevation, and latitude determine whether a location will be generally hotter or colder. Landforms can also impact climate by blocking or redirecting wind and rain patterns.
