In fact because towns are on the same latitude doesn't mean they will have the same climates. Different air and ocean currents make all the difference. The severity of seasonal changes is not the same at all latitudes. Seasonal changes in temperature at the equator and throughout the tropics are minor. Earth's tilted axis causes the seasons. Throughout the year, different parts of Earth receive the Sun's most direct rays. So, when the North Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's summer in the Northern Hemisphere and when the South Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's winter in the Northern Hemisphere. In the same latitude, cities are closer to the equator and closer to the poles they cause mainly to a different temperature. The temperature of the two cities has the same latitude but they will vary to the higher latitude to the other. The tropics are two lines of latitude about 23.5 degrees north and 23.5 degrees south of the Equator. Land in this area receives direct sunlight throughout most of the year. Tropical Wet and Dry is known for its two seasons.The tropics are two lines of latitude about 23.5 degrees north and 23.5 degrees south of the Equator. Land in this area receives direct sunlight throughout most of the year. Tropical Wet and Dry is known for it's two seasons. India is divided into two halves by the Tropic of Cancer at 23°30′ N latitude. The Tropic of Cancer is an imaginary line present above the Equator at 23.5 degrees latitude. It is also known as the Northern Tropic. During the summer, the sun's rays hit the Earth at a steep angle. The light does not spread out as much, thus increasing the amount of energy hitting any given spot. Also, the long daylight hours allow the Earth plenty of time to reach warm temperatures. The distance between any two adjacent latitudes is approximately 69 miles or 111 km. Latitude lines run parallel to each other. That's why the distance between them remains constant from the South to the North pole. On the other hand, longitude lines are furthest apart at the equator and meet at the poles.

Places at the same latitude may have very different climates if one is on a coast and one is inland. On the coast, the climate is influenced by warm moist air from the ocean. A coastal climate is usually mild. Summers aren't too hot, and winters aren't too cold. Two different places at the same latitudes may have different climates because there are other factors that affect the climate in addition to latitude. The climate is influenced by topography, elevation, large bodies of water, global winds and vegetation. The climate of a region depends on many factors including the amount of sunlight it receives, its height above sea level, the shape of the land, and how close it is to oceans. Since the equator receives more sunlight than the poles, climate varies depending on its distance from the equator. The distance between two successive lines of latitude remains constant (111km) because latitudes run parallel to each other and never meets the other latitude. But distance between the longitudes decreases as they go towards the Pole. The temperature decreases as we move from the equator to the poles. Altitude as we move from the surface of the earth to the higher altitudes, the temperature decreases. Pressure and wind system: The pressure and wind system of any area depend on the latitude and altitude of that place. The most important factor is latitude because different latitudes receive different amounts of solar radiation. The maximum annual temperature of the Earth, showing a roughly gradual temperature gradient from the low to the high latitudes. The Equator receives the most solar radiation. Seasons on Earth are found only in the temperate zones. These zones extend from 23.5° north (and south) latitude to 66.5° north (and south) latitude. In these regions of Earth nature exhibits four seasons; spring, summer, autumn (or fall) and winter. There is a relationship between latitude and temperature around the world, as temperatures are typically warmer approaching the Equator and cooler approaching the Poles. There are variations, though, as other factors such as elevation, ocean currents, and precipitation affect climate patterns. The seasonal effects are different at different latitudes on Earth. Near the equator, for instance, all seasons are much the same. Every day of the year, the Sun is up half the time, so there are approximately 12 hours of sunshine and 12 hours of night. The Poles and the Equator have essentially constant temperatures, affected only by day/night cycles. Between them (the latitudes), the angle of the sun throughout the year changes enough to create major cyclic variations in the day/night cycle temperatures that we call our seasons.
