1. Tennessee is a landlocked inland state, while most populated areas of California are near the Pacific Ocean; coastal locations have cooler, more moderate temperatures due to oceanic influence.
2. The California Current, a cold ocean current, flows along California's coast, bringing cooler air and lowering temperatures.
3. Mountain ranges like the Sierra Nevada and Coast Ranges in California affect weather patterns, including causing cooler temperatures through elevation and orographic effects.
