Well it depends how far north you are There's a big difference between southern Spain and northern Scotland. I believe here in England we're roughly in line with Canada.
Rather north in Canada. Madrid is in line with Washington, DC.

To give it some perspective, Montreal is the northernmost major city on the east coast of either the US or Canada. It is north of Toronto and Halifax. It is really far north. Five hours north of New York.
Montreal is right in line with..... Milan, Italy and the French Riviera!! Places like Switzerland and Austria lie completely north of the populated portions of the North America Eastern Seaboard. Places like England, Belgium, Germany, Netherlands, Poland, etc. are so far north that it's actually confusing for Americans to picture people living so far north.

And while the Pacific Coast is shifted much farther north than the Atlantic Coast is, even Vancouver, the farthest northern major city on the continent, is only in line with Paris, which is about the middle of Europe.

@dashrender is in Nebraska which is identical in latitude to Pennsylvania. He lives right in line with Barcelona.

And just out of interest, here in Houston we line up with Cairo and the southern border of Morocco.

Yeah, I'm really not looking forward to global warming screwing up the Gulf Stream. <shivers>

Yeah, Europe risks a rather chilling future.
