Answer 2

Good question. It's all location. Regina is influenced mainly by continental polar air in the summer and modified maritime tropical air in the summer, while Vancouver is most strongly influenced by the ocean. The ocean always takes longer to warm and longer to cool. It therefore helps to moderate the temperature fluctuations of coastal cities. This is the main reason why Vancouver is warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer than Regina.

Answer 3

Vancouver is at the sea cost and climatic conditions definee sea air, airs moisture and air streams from mountains. Regina is on high plains, that means dry air (very low level of moisture) and non-stop stream of east to west winds (sometime and NE to SW). Therefore the themperature gradients are expressive in Regina than in Vancouver. But dont't worry, everywhere is fantastic if you accept global situation.

Answer 4

Because Regina is an inland city, and it is away from any large mountains or any large bodies of water
Nothing to regulate the climate. Polar cold and Southern warmth can come through the area, without anything standing in it's way

Vancouver, on the other hand, has both mountains and Water surrounding it. The mountains protect the city from polar cold temperatures, and the Pacific ocean regulates the warmth, keeping it in tolerable range.
