The statement is - True.
The five main factors that determine the weather at a certain place are the:
- geographic location/latitude
It determines the amount of sunlight, as well as the concentration of sun rays, which directly influences the temperature.
- altitude/height above sea level
The lower the place the warmer it is, the higher the place the colder it is, it is a simple rule that applies for all places on the planet, compared with places in their surroundings.
- ocean currents/large lakes
The ocean currents can bring cold and dry or warm and wet air masses, depending on what kind of an ocean current it is. The water also contributes to a more stable weather, with more moderate temperatures because of the thermal properties of the water to cool of and warm up slower than the land.
- winds
The air masses can bring cold and dry or warm and wet weather, so they influence the temperature and precipitation of a place.
- topography
Determines how much a place is exposed to the sunlight and the movement of the air masses.
