Explore this https://www.usclimatedata.com to identify the average temperatures in your location (i.e. city). Note how the temperature varies throughout a single year. Record the information for one year of data (monthly) . (Note: the website displays temperature in Fahrenheit, so you will need to convert to Celsius for the following steps.)
explains what months would be considered the best and worst growing seasons for typical crops. Please include your reasoning.
Based on the following information, identify the true statement about the two North American cities, both situated in the western United States.
For City A, the coldest average monthly temperature is 7° Celsius in December and the hottest average monthly temperature is 27° Celsius in July.
For City B, the coldest average monthly temperature occurs in December at -0.2°, and the warmest average monthly temperature occurs in July at 29.8° Celsius.
Group of answer choices
City A is located east of City B
City B is located more interior than City A
City B is located west of City A
City B is located nearer to the coast than City A
The two cities are located at the same latitude
