Latitude is interesting. My latitude here in Washington state is 
within 2 minutes of our latitude in Minnesota but the climate is VERY 
different. Ocean currents and large bodies of water do influence 
things and (for me) that's a good thing.
I was at

and noticed that you can see Red Lake in MN, just follow it over to 
the west coast. Almost a straight line. After I noticed that I had to 
get the globe down.

Speaking of weather and climate and spring (my sure sign of spring is 
bugs on the car windshield, I haven't seen any yet) just the last 2 
mornings have been above freezing.
