Lesson details
Lesson outcome
I can explain what affects temperatures locally and why it is cold at the North and South Poles.
Show transcript
Locally, air temperatures are affected by factors such wind direction and speed, shelter and shade.
Globally, as Earth orbits the sun, temperatures are affected by where a place is and time of year.
In the Northern Hemisphere winter, the North Pole is tilted away from the sun and is darker and colder as a result.
While places in the Northern Hemisphere experience winter, the opposite happens in the Southern Hemisphere.
