Boston is in the transition zone between humid subtropical and humid continental. It rains more in January on average than snow. The further you get to from the coast / city, the closer you get to continental. The suburbs fall into this range, but not the city or coast.
It's getting ridiculous now. Boston sub tropical!? How can somewhere as cold as Boston be in the same zone as Brisbane? They couldn't be anymore different!

Boston is really not that cold. The average in the coldest month close to the coast (city proper) is -1.6C, which places it squarely in the transition zone. Rain and snow are about equally likely in January. The suburbs I specifically stated are in the continental zone.

Yes. Cheers was a wonderful sitcom about the daily goings -on of a bar, in the subtropical surrounds of Boston.
I'm sure glad Koppen isn't required reading for travel agents.
It's temperate continental. Winters are much too cold to be subtropical. The growing season is even longer in most part of France. Do we consider that France have a subtropical climate? Even in the warmest place, Biarritz, we are far from this category, we need at least 3°C of global warning to see subtropical climate in France.

So for you, Ireland have a subtropical climate? What? There is very few frost days in winters in some locations. I'm sorry but where is the palms trees in New York? The natural vegetation is mostly composed of summergreen trees like oaks, beechs or maples. The growing season reach 7 months in NY, just like Paris for example.

Biarritz has not hot summer for a subtropical climate.

Like I said, I don't know what your definition of subtropical climate is, but subtropical basically means warm temperate. Why is that so hard to understand?

You can order palm trees for NYC and long island from several retailers. I'm actually glad you brought this up.
