What creates our climate?
- The shape of our country- The Baltic sea- The height above sea level - Industry
The shape
Poland and the rest of Europe mostly consists of lowlands. Because of this air mass can easily move to us from the Atlantic Ocean.
Baltic sea
Water from Baltic evaporotaes so near the shore there is more rainfall.
Higher = colder
Every 100m. over the sea level temperature decreases by 0,6°C. Because of this there’s colder in the moutains than in for example in Warsaw.
Industry
In many cities there’s a little bit warmer because of factories. The most industrial region of Poland is Śląsk.
