The yearly average temperature of the area is obviously important, but the yearly range in temperature is also important. Some areas have a much larger range between highest and lowest temperature than other areas.

Detailed explanation-3: -The temperature characteristics of a region are influenced by natural factors such as latitude, elevation and the presence of ocean currents. The precipitation characteristics of a region are influenced by factors such as proximity to mountain ranges and prevailing winds.

Detailed explanation-4: -A climate is the average yearly conditions of temperature, precipitation, winds, and clouds in an area. The climate of a region is determined by two main factors: temperature and precipitation.

Detailed explanation-5: -The climate of any particular place is influenced by a host of interacting factors. These include latitude, elevation, nearby water, ocean currents, topography, vegetation, and prevailing winds.
