    I’m at the same latitude as Portugal and in low elevation. We didn’t get above freezing for five weeks straight during part of this winter. We set a couple of record cold temperatures too.

      Same latitude doesn’t mean same climate though. North America is much colder at the same latitudes as Europe for example. The climate also depends on how far away you live from the ocean and many other factors.

        Do you know what the AMOC collapse is? It would change the climate of most of Europe. That’s the point of this whole post. Europe could become much colder.
