I'm just creating this thread for myself (and anyone else) to add to later. But, the idea is to come up with an aggregate climate comprised of climates every 100km (or whatever km) along the same latitude for a given continent. Or, if you're a real workhorse, then the planet itself (don't include oceans please). It'll take me a while but I'll do my own latitude, 49N, for North America and Eurasia.  |

The Kerguelen Islands are quite a good representative for a large swathe of the Southern Hemisphere at 49° S about sea-level; tundra ( ET)—chiefly the South Indian sector. The only landmass at 49° S on the southern end of the globe is South America, as most of the southern world is high seas. Makes Vancouver look subtropique!   |

From 15 different locations on or adjacent to 58°N:
July: 21/10
January: -10/-17
In other words firmly subarctic and similar to Swedish Lapland at around 66°N in lower areas.

To know for sure if it is subarctic or humid continental, the means for the May-Sep period is needed. Probably would be enough with Sep and May mean to know. The annual mean will not be very warm in interior Canada or Siberia. Close to permafrost. |

The annual mean will not be very warm in interior Canada or Siberia. Close to permafrost. I know. The thing though is, that Kuujjuaq, Inukjuak, Churchill, Magadan and Aldan are included and Septembers are freezing like crazy there, whereas May is rather frozen in more oceanic places. It's very rare to have both May and September within Dfb and basically only happens in Scandinavia, which thus condemns September to likely be around 8-9°C in mean. Can't see it reach 10°C although I can check later. I've included: Norrköping Kristiansand Thurso Kuujjuaq Inukjuak Churchill High Level Fort Nelson Juneau Magadan Aldan Ust-Ilimsk Perm Vologda Voru |

So here are the raw calculations starting from Ust-Ilimsk and finishing at Aldan:
13.0, 16.9, 16.9, 17.7, 16.7, 14.3, 12.7, 5.0, 1.2, 2.9, 16.2, 16.4, 13.7, 4.9, 10.6 = 11.94 = 11.9°C
0.3, 5.4, 4.8, 6.1, 6.2, 5.6, 5.2, -3.6, -5.1, -5.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.8, -0.5, 0.0 = 1.95 = 2.0°C
12.5, 13.9, 14.0, 15.7, 17.7, 15.6, 14.6, 10.1, 7.7, 9.5, 14.8, 15.3, 13.2, 10.4, 9.8 = 12.98 = 13.0°C
1.5, 6.2, 5.5, 7.5, 8.8, 7.8, 8.2, 2.6, 2.5, 3.2, 1.9, 3.1, 6.9, 5.1, 0.8 = 4.77 = 4.8°C
So, like I predicted; 11.9/2.0 = 6.9°C for May and 13.0 + 4.8 = 8.9°C for September.
In other words, firmly subarctic.

8.9c overall so Sep lacking 1.1c.
