Question

Why does temperature in Mumbai and Chennai not fall as low as it does in Delhi?

One Line Answer

Solution

The temperature in Mumbai and Chennai do not fall as low as in Delhi because these cities are situated in the coastal areas. Due to high specific heat capacity, the presence of a large amount of water is able to modify the climate of the nearby land areas making them warmer in winter and cooler in summer. So, the temperature does not fall as low as it does in Delhi.
