Hello,
Sounds like an interesting project. And I'm glad that you're looking for some pointers as to where to start rather than asking people to do the work for you. I hope you'll find this project interesting.
So, as a starting point:
1)[Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
Wikipedia is the free open-source encyclopedia. It gives a good overview of what climate is and explains the difference between 'climate' and 'weather.'
It also gives an overview of what controls the climate in a region and what controls global climate.
2) Here's another website that is chockfull of information about climates and why they vary:

3)And here's the BBC site on Geography and Climate:
[Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
4)This one might be the most directed to some of the questions you ask-- with information about latitude and marine climates.
5)For Specific U.S. Climate info, I would advise going to the NOAA website:
[Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
They have pretty detailed maps that show precipitation and temperature patterns in various regions of the U.S. and over time series, too.
These are just starting points and may lead you to other links.
Best of luck on your project!
