I’ve always found Tamaulipas to be so fascinating due to its botany. You can find many species of epiphytic orchids at their northern limits despite the risk of frost. Reserva Biosfera El Cielo is a lush tropical forest that is the northernmost tropical forest in the Americas.

I live in Monterrey very close to Tamaulipas, before the 2021 freeze most of the streets in the city were full of mature tropical trees and plants like Delonix regia, Ceibas, mango trees, avocado trees, Royal palms, Christmas palms and more stuff like that. You could even find fruiting coconut palms but they were a bit rarer. With all the rain we got this summer, a lot of tropical trees resurrected and came back. I have a tropical palm collection in the city and all of the palms I currently have, have survived weaker frosts. The species that surprised me the most is the Acrocomia aculeata palm and its resistance to cold despite being a palm that is common in tropical areas of the americas and its growth rate.

One of the interesting questions I've tried to answer is the location of the highest latitude locations which have never frozen (in both hemispheres). For the northern, I'm almost certain that the answer is either Menton (the Wikipedia climate data shows it just barely has but I strongly suspect that the most protected and coastal microclimates have not, due to some circumstantial evidence of well established equatorial plants growing in the gardens there) and if not that then _definitely_ the Azores which haven't even gotten close even for the northernmost ones. For the southern, this is a lot harder, Mallacoota is the best candidate I've found yet that for sure never freezes, but I strongly suspect the more protected parts of the Corner Inlet and/or some islands present in the inlet do not freeze either (once again the data for a few locations here shows they just baaarely froze but these are along some more exposed sites). Cape Grim and King Island are other good candidates. Amazingly, the subpolar Auckland Islands have shockingly mild record minimum temps, and even support a population of tree ferns at a whopping 50 degrees south. Perhaps some ultra protected inlet could have never recorded a freeze? Either way, the temperate areas that _don't_ freeze are just as interesting as the tropical ones that do. Another fun one is coastal Norway, which while it definitely does freeze also has ridiculously mild winter temps, Tromsø has a higher record min temperature than Tallahassee and some places in the Lofoten archipelago like Vågan and Røst barely ever even graze past -10 C despite being above the arctic circle. edit: Ile Amsterdam in the Indian Ocean is another good candidate, roughly the same latitude as Mallacoota and has never frozen. Its also interesting because the temperature range is ridiculously small on it, under 25 C between the _record_ min and max temps, probably the most oceanic climate on Earth. Additionally, its quite nearby to Kerguelen, an archipelago which basically acts as a mini Antarctica but at an unusually low latitude, complete with a tidewater glacier, barren rocks, and a tundra climate. edit 2: Bruny Island in Tasmania looks like another really good candidate, once again barely ever froze and is very far south.

@@alunjones3860 A lot of these temp records go pretty far back into the 20th century or even before, but yes this does make it more difficult. Of course if you go far back enough you end up at the last glacial maximum where of course these places would freeze, or even back to the little ice age where if they are borderline never freeze climates they might have frozen then too. So there needs to be some sort of reasonable limit on the timescale, some people might set this at different times but I'd imagine as long as its long enough to capture at least a handful of serious, record breaking cold waves its reliable enough for me. Definitely worth going for the climates that haven't even remotely frozen though if you really want to hedge your bets and/or capture a longer timescale with more global variation, but this doesn't really matter if you're just looking for a place you can grow cool plants and experience comfy winters at a high latitude.

A particularly fascinating case in my opinion is eastern Australia. Mackay has recorded a freeze (just barely), while Mallacoota has not, despite Mackay being a borderline tropical climate and Mallacoota being solidly temperate, and the latter being a whopping 16 degrees of latitude further south. Both are along the eastern coastline, at sea level. The hardiness map of Australia is exceedingly weird, lots of little pockets of, well... not quite _micro_ climates, but definitely weird local variations dotted all over the place.

Its also something you have to be _very_ wary about when researching for zone pushing, since the same climate zone in the east coast is very much so not equivalent to that of the west. Northern Florida is technically in the same hardiness zone as much of Washington state, but the cold events there tend to be brief and followed by warmer weather which is much easier for plants to get through than the days to weeks of minimum temps you get on the west coast. Plants that can easily handle east coast 7a often struggle even in 8b winters in the west, so east coast growers' reports of cold hardiness often don't work out west.

1:40 The alps play a big role in regulating the climate of northern Italy (the Po Valley). Compared to the oceanic and humid continental climates on the other side of the alps, in northern Italy we have less warm winter warm spells caused by mild Atlantic currents, because of temperature inversion (Venice can have 1°C/3°C days with fog while Stuttgart in Germany has 6°C/10°C days), but also much less cold winter cold spells, with relatively dry -3°C/+3°C while Stuttgart experiences -7°C/-3°C extremes or colder. I would love it if you made a video about the climate of the Po valley, I think you could draw some climatic parallels with the US Midwest even if our climate is a lot less extreme (Milan has similar avg annual temperature to Kansas City, with warmer winters, colder summers, and a storm season in summer which can cause violent storms and hail but rarely tornadoes, contrary to the Midwest)

While the extremes and frequency can not match those in the Americas, especially North America, north eastern Australia can occasionally get random freezing spells north of the Tropic of Cancer.

Also the Southern Ocean between Antarctica and Australia moderates polar blasts far more than the landmasses of Asia and North America which stretch all the way from tropics to the Arctic. Also, cold temps in northern Australia only happen at night. In daytime, it still warms up to around 20C during those cold snaps, with a big contributor being very low humidity in northern Australia during winter allowing for large diurnal range. Areas around Tropic of Cancer in North America and Asia actually have winter days where it stays cold all day

Finding unexpected climates is a topic that has always fascinated me. Therefore, I cannot help but mention that the coldest and most tropical country at the same time must be Peru. Its southernmost point is at latitude 18°S (which would correspond to Jamaica in the north). Even so, 70% of all tropical glaciers in the world are in Peru, precisely because of the combination of the high altitude of the Andes and the humidity coming from Ecuador. Bolivia, for example, being a little further south has also the altitude and a geography within the tropics, but very few glaciers since the areas close to the limits of the tropics have less humidity. Another reason for Peru is to find frozen areas at sea level due to the Humboldt Current which is the coldest in the world (not the coldest in absolute value, but in comparison with the temperature of the Pacific at those latitudes). The Peruvian coasts are usually 10 degrees colder than the ocean waters, this causes hail to occur at only 100-200 AMSL and near the sea at a latitude as "warm" as 12°S (it happened in Lima in 2021) or temperatures that can reach 0.6°C near the sea which is the coldest reported in the coastal plain. It would be interesting to expand on the topic of the very strange and cloudy climate that the coasts of Peru and Angola have due to their cold currents.

We were in disbelief watching it fall. We matched the 28 degrees December of 1989. In that year, the cold lasted a few days longer than the one in 1971 and killed off the leaves on most of the trees.

In some places of the neighbor state of Nuevo León you can also grow tropical plants peacefully until a random freeze wipes them out. Before the 2021 freeze there were over 110 coconut palms scattered around the city of Monterrey, after the freeze only a little more than a half survived. Some of them were in high altitudes in houses that surrounded the mountains of the city where "snow" fell which impressed me. A lot of tropical plants came back with all the amount of rain we've been getting since tropical storm Alberto. Our climate is mostly subtropical but when rain falls and the sun comes out, it feels like tropical.

It's not like tropical forests in these locations don't also experience setbacks after getting a direct hit from a major hurricane. Although some tropical plants might not survive a freeze, the larger forest can still respond quickly to disturbance. These areas may also have a winter dry season, which in theory would allow some plants to go semi-dormant. In Ohio, a hardy southern magnolia (Magnolia grandiflora) occasionally dies back to the ground after a severe winter. Since the tree tolerates fire, it simply re-sprouts from the roots. It's not like the tree cares whether it was a fire or a freeze, as the plant's response is the same. Black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) is very prone to late spring frost damage, but it's not super relevant as the tree will quickly leaf out again and outgrow the damage.

Considering there's still idiots who refute this literally humankind changing phenomenon, I don't blame youtube for annoying us with this info.

On a small Caribbean island in the 80s🏖, there was one helluva cold day that I remember in high school. We were shivering with chattering teeth under the midday tropical sun. 🌡 Our geography teacher said a North American front was sweeping the Caribbean.🌬 That day was CHILLY as FCK!🧊❄

High mountain desert of southern California, north of Barstow. Scorching hot all day, below freezing by dawn. You can hear rocks splitting from thermal shock!

Can you make a video about the flora and fauna of tropical montane regions that experience freezing and subfreezing temperatures? I would like to hear about how life has adapted to the higher elevations

I’m not sure if this is a tropical region but Dar Es Salaam in Tanzania on Africa’s east coast has been known to get snowfall which I think is interesting. A lot of east africas major cities have actually been know to receive snowfall but this is due to the higher elevations of places like Addis Ababa, Nairobi, and Arusha. However Dar Es Salaam lies at sea level which I think is interesting.

very interesting. excellent anecdote about the coral being killed in florida. i didnt know coral could serve as an indicator of short term drops in temperature, and i had no idea the freezes of the 70's and 80's in florida were unprecedented enough to serve as a serious selection event

While it is not freezing air, sometimes the Friagem will cross the equator into the north hemisphere bringing significant below average temperatures to the heart of the amazon

Your videos are really fascinating but please, when shifting subjects or after explaining a particular thing, take a breather. It allows us viewers to absorb what you hust communicated before you dive into the next point. 👍

You can do the opposite, places at latitudes that should see snow but don't , like Portugal in mainland Europe snow at latitudes lower than Lisbon like Athenes Greece got more snow days than Lisbon

Even though you have an international audience if you are giving the temperatures in Texas you begin with Fahrenheit and then follow up Celsius.
