Oregon and Washington are considered to have a Mediterranean climate (well at least, the valleys and puget sound). Which is considered a type of subtropical.
Palm trees grow as far north as Vancouver, BC, does this mean Oregon and Washington could be said to be a very chilly example of a subtropical climate?

Sub-tropical climate map Subtropical climate refers to zones in a range of latitudes between 30/40° and 45°. The hot season duration is longer, while the cold season is milder and rainy. A sub-type is the Mediterranean climate.
Not really. They also average 6 plus inches in the valley up to a foot in Vancouver... have incredibly cool ocean waters all year long, and have high precip in fall, winter, spring. Those palm trees that grow in Vancouver are a very cold variety including the needle palm which could be grown in NYC. I think it mostly has to do with the incredibly cool waters off the coast. Would you consider San Diego sub tropical? When I think subtropical, I think at least halfway down the coast of baja.
