Subtropical-is-temperate3 thinks he can grow windmills everywhere, Windmills are limited to zone 7 without protection, Amherstburg might be the best option in Ontario.

They will not grow in Toronto man, protection is required there.
Are you always in Citydata? I’ll start my own thread, and don’t declare windmills to everywhere. Until it is not 7b, windmills are not the best option, 7a in Nashville works perfectly but don’t get over exited.

Auburn, AL is crazy!: Auburn, the typical latitude for a Cfa(humid-subtropical) climate usually around 25-40°N/S(there is various exceptions), 32.5°N/S would be middle of it, Auburn is 32.6°N! With hardiness zone 8, it is good enough for many cold-hardy palms, Sabal Palmetto can be grown well! Also at hardiness zone 8 is also where many citrus can start to be grown! With an average of 45.5°F(7.5°C) coldest month, exactly middle of -3°C(26.6°F) to border continental and 18°C(64.4°F) to border tropical, Auburn makes it to the perfect middle of temperate (C) average, and with its hot humid summers with average of 81°F warmest month it is a perfect example of a humid-subtropical climate of North America, crazy how exact it is!
Unless you’re using hardiness zones to understand growth capabilities of just North American regions, I wouldn’t use them. They’re over-conservative for not taking in anything but the mean winter minimum. This typically causes Americans to be more conservative, in a global context, with what they grow. As we can see from a lot of the discourse on City-Data, it even leads Americans to misunderstand their region’s native ecology, and it leads to this weird thinking that “if the U.S. south has a certain ecological trait, it must not be subtropical”. Weird thinking.
