Not all that surprising when you consider that New York is a tiny bit more to the south than Rome. Draw a horizontal line through Italy, Spain and New York and you'll find similar amounts of sunshine. Draw a line through Scotland and see where you would end up in Canada, it's probably going to be even more cold and miserable there than in Scotland ;)
