air circulation along coasts during summer, developed when the overall pressure gradient is at its
lowest. During the day, the Sun warms the land more than the adjacent sea and so the air above the land becomes warmer and thus rises. This produces a convective motion with the cooler air for the sea moving onto the land. At night the situation is reversed because the sea is warmer than the land.

sea-breeze (or
onshore breeze) is a
wind from the sea that develops over land near coasts. It is formed by increasing temperature differences between the land and water which create a pressure minimum over the land due to its relative warmth and forces higher pressure, cooler air from the sea to move inland. Generally, air temperature gets cooler relative to nearby locations as one moves closer to a large body of water.
At night, the land cools off quicker than the ocean due to differences in their
specific heat values, which forces the dying of the daytime sea breeze. If the land cools below that of the adjacent
sea surface temperature, the pressure over the water will be lower than that of the land, setting up a land breeze as long as the environmental surface wind pattern is not strong enough to oppose it. If there is sufficient moisture and instability available, the land breeze can cause showers or even thunderstorms, over the water. Overnight thunderstorm development offshore due to the land breeze can be a good predictor for the activity on land the following day, as long as there are no expected changes to the weather pattern over the following 12–24 hours. This is mainly because the strength of the land breeze is weaker than the sea breeze.
The land breeze will die once the land warms up again the next morning.

kay Aljur Abrenica. Siya ang idinenay umano ni Aljur na naka-date sa Puerto Galera noong nakaraang summer. Ang very intriguing sa kuwento, minolestiya umano ni Aljur ang girl na lumalabas na isa palang menor de edad! Ang lahat naman ng kuwento ng babae ay marring pinabulaanan ng kampo ni Aljur.
