 Weather is caused by the exchange of energy between the sun, the Earth’s surface and the atmosphere. The sun supplies the energy and the earth’s shape and motion determine how much sunlight and heat each location receives, which determines temperature. Surface water, relief and the nature of the ground cover also influence the temperature. For example, large bodies of water have a moderating effect on temperature, keeping days cooler and nights warmer. Cities are generally a few degrees warmer than the surrounding countryside.
