Ah yes, the famously wintery coasts of France and Spain.

It's a cool idea, but putting aside the silliness of putting the whole of China in one region only of the US, they very clearly looked at pure latitude without taking into account the effects of the AMOC keeping the whole western coast of Europe about 10-15℃ warmer than it has any right to be given its position on the globe.

I like how it's confirmed gonna collapse within from 1 to 100 years, and everyone's response is just to wait to see while arguing about when it's going to happen exactly
