I want to see any of scenario from based on the map
The American continents stay as same but I guess it will be also affected by others
(Longitude 20°W through 180°E totally flipped over to the other side)
well in europe everything north of milano would be pretty much unlivable.
Not unlivable. However, a city like London might looking something like this, climate-wise, with sufficient oceanic moderation, and probably a lot more snow, too:
Bremerhaven would probably see a cold snowy winter, summers would be rainy and mild/warm.
Maybe something like this:
January: -5°C/-10°C
July: 23°C/15°C
The whole coast of Northern Europe (including UK) will be having pretty harsh weather, because of its:
1- high latitude
2- the sea is directly open to the Arctic Circle (meaning more frequent cold spells and with the sea above it: damp cold, windy and rainy year round)
JAN: -13C/-6C
AUG: 9C/21C
However I am pretty much interested what will happen to the Mediterranean Basin. I have no clue what they will get (maybe more hurricanes or oceanic mild year round?!)...
Australia, Indonesia and similar would be pretty similar to what they are now.
I think Spain/Portugal would have pretty cold winters (like... average lows of -5 °C in January near the coasts), and summers would not be mediterranean, they would be hot and humid.
Sahara would not be a desert, probably. Winters in northern Africa would dip below freezing often.
Italy would be similar to Japan, probably, with a lot of snow on the eastern (with this scenario it's the western) side because of the "snow-lake" effect. Probably around 6 or 7 meters a year. Winters in Milan would probably have average lows around -15/-18 °C (in January). Central Europe (like France and Germany) would be mostly subarctic and uninhabitable. Paris may have average lows around -23 °C in January and Berlin... around -27 °C. Summers in both locations would be around 18/22 °C of average highs. Scandinavia and Finland would be almost completely (like 200 people) uninhabited. It would very similar to Nunavut and Chukotka. Poland would be a frozen wasteland.
Asia: Beijing would have a mediterranean climate with very mild winters (average highs in January of around 12/15 °C, like most of Mediterranean locations) and hot dry summers. Inland China would be extremely hot. I think Vladivostok would have a mediterranean climate with oceanic temperatures and not cold winters at all (now Vladivostok has very cold winters), with average lows above freezing in January. Hokkaido would rarely ever see snow. Most of the cities would have winters like this: average high: 8 °C , average low: 2 °C. Probably less than 30 cm of snow a year. Yakutsk would probably be a lot milder, with average lows around -24 °C in January (it's still very cold, I know) but a lot cooler summers (like 18 °C average highs in July). If this scenario occurred in middle-ages, Europe would probably have been very poor. Petropavlovsk-Kamkachi would have a lovely oceanic climate (still very cloudy and rainy, but with much warmer winter temperatures, with average lows above freezing in January, but probably similar summers)
So, Asia would have been very mild, even at northerly latitudes, and Europe would be unlivable. Simple
