Well, that would put the Canadian border at the same parallel as San Antonio, TX is now, Barrow, AK would be at the 51st parallel, that would put Miami at the same latitude as Baranquilla, Colombia, Rio de Janeiro would be at 61°S, everything south of Sao Paolo would be above the Antarctic Circle, and techically, South America would have crashed into Antarctica in this situation, this would also put the equator through Central Mexico and it would run through the Mediterranean Sea and through the Himalaya's, and New Zealand and Australia would possibly be Subpolar climates in this scenario
Australia would still have all kinds of diverse climates, but the desert would probably be smaller. New Zealand in the north would be like how Invercargill currently is, and the south would be either subpolar oceanic or flat-out subantarctic.

I think Phoenix would have a climate similar to Merida, Mexico
