Microclimate

The climate within a small area that differs from the surrounding climate

Real World Example

Imagine you're trying to find a comfortable spot in a crowded room where the temperature feels just right. This is similar to how microclimates work, where a specific area has a different climate than the surrounding region. Just like how the corner near the window might feel cooler while the center of the room is warmer, microclimates occur when factors like shade, elevation, or bodies of water create variations in temperature and humidity within a small area compared to the larger climate around it.
