Yep, we're really quite high up, but our climate wouldn't really show that. Its very mild. No need for snow tyres or anything as we just don't get that cold regularly enough. Would be a rude awakening to us Brits if our winters went back to what our geological climate would be. Its always suprising when I haven't looked at a map for a while and remind myself that we are up in northern Canada. Just feels wrong haha

North American land mass has the unfortunate problem of extending well into the Arctic Circle, so a cold air mass comes down unimpeded if the jet stream will allow it. I don't think British Isles or Europe could ever be as cold as Canada / Northern US
