Coastal regions as I mentioned last week has its own local climate, sea fog, gales and rough seas, sunny blue skies, and in fine stable conditions beneath regions of high pressure or subsiding air, land and sea breezes.

These breezes come and go, the sea breeze picks up through the afternoon especially when the prevailing wind flow is light and offers a cooler, refreshing breeze which sometimes penetrate well inland from the sea resort. The land mass heats up through the day and the warmer air rises and cools, then the cooler air over the sea moves towards the land to take its place, so the wind direction increases and changes direction from sea to land. A land breeze occurs when the land chills overnight, the warmer air over the sea rises allowing the cooler land air to move out towards the sea.

These breezes can influence climatic conditions causing local variations. If anyone dislikes the humid heat of inland locations, they only need to journey to the coast to enjoy the refreshing local sea and land breezes.
