🔍 Key Concepts

• Maritime climate vs. continental climate and how large bodies of water affect temperature changes • The role of warm ocean currents in moderating nearby coastal climates • Typical air mass sources that influence Florida weather patterns

💭 Think About

• Think about which option represents something that can store and slowly release heat, keeping temperatures from changing too quickly between seasons. • Ask yourself which feature is most consistently present year-round near the Florida peninsula and directly interacts with its coastlines. • Eliminate any choice that would tend to cause greater temperature extremes rather than a more even, moderate climate.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which choices are ocean-related features versus primarily atmospheric or continental features. • Consider which feature actually lies adjacent to or surrounding the Florida peninsula itself. • Verify which option is known for moderating temperatures (not creating strong cold or hot spells).
