how can being near a large body of water affect the climate of the region?

If you've ever heard of lake effect snow that is when cold air mass moves across long expanses of warmer lake water. The lower layer of air, heated up by the lake water, picks up water vapor from the lake and rises up through the colder air above; the vapor then freezes and is deposited on the leeward (downwind) shore. this is most common with lake Michigan when cold air travels down from Canada making the neighboring states colder, so YES, being near any body of water can effect the climate.

I hope this helps

Answer:

Explanation:

Hurricane winds whip up large

waves in the ocean. These waves cause

a bulge of water in the ocean known

as a storm surge (stawrm surj). As

a storm moves over a coast, the

storm surge can cause water levels to

suddenly rise, or surge, several meters.

The main dangers in a hurricane

are flying objects, strong winds, and

flooding. If possible, leave areas

threatened by a hurricane. Take

prescription medicines with you.

If you stay in a building, board up

windows and stay away from windows

and doors. Store food, bottled water,

flashlights, and battery operated

radios. Stay away from beaches

and areas that may become flooded
