Factors of climate Miami is climatically related to Honolulu, Hawaii because they are both are in the wet ant dry tropical zone. Another similarity is that the body's of water are both on the city. Miami is quite close to the Atlantic that brings in warm air. It is also close to a large jetstream which basically regulates temperature year round. It's also a relatively flat area and that makes it warmer. image001.gif
