The strength of the sea breeze is directly proportional to the temperature difference between the land and the sea. If a strong offshore wind is present (that is, a wind greater than 8 knots (15 km/h)) and opposing the direction of a possible sea breeze, the sea breeze is not likely to develop. [3]
Sea Breeze was forced to downsize during the Great Depression, and the trolley line to the park, now owned by New York State Railways, [3] was closed in 1936. George W. Long Jr. began renting the park from New York State Railways in 1937, and purchased it in 1946, changing the name to Dreamland Park. [4]
In the 1930s, a sea breeze had gin, apricot brandy, grenadine, and lemon juice. [6] Later, a Sea Breeze recipe would contain vodka, dry vermouth, Galliano, and blue Curaçao. [6] In the 1930s, a cranberry growers' cooperative evolved into Ocean Spray, which promoted cranberry juice as a mixer with alcohol, first with gin and later with vodka. [4]

Fremantle Doctor (afternoon sea breeze from the Indian Ocean which cools Perth, Western Australia during summer) Southeast Australian foehn (a westerly föhn wind that affects southeastern Australia) Southerly buster (rapidly arriving low pressure cell that dramatically cools southeast Australian cities such as Sydney and Melbourne during summer)
If the Santa Anas are strong, the usual day-time sea breeze may not arise, or develop weak later in the day because the strong offshore desert winds oppose the on-shore sea breeze. At night, the Santa Ana Winds merge with the land breeze blowing from land to sea and strengthen because the inland desert cools more than the ocean due to ...
This rising air over the land lowers the sea level pressure by about 0.2%. The cooler air above the sea, now with higher sea level pressure, flows towards the land into the lower pressure, creating a cooler breeze near the coast. The strength of the sea breeze is directly proportional to the temperature difference between the land mass and the sea.
