For one thing, it's further south.
... is closer to the sun than Maine. Also, there's less atmosphere for sunlight to penetrate.
John Cabot did not settle in Newfoundland primarily due to the lack of resources and support for a permanent colony. His 1497 voyage was more focused on exploration and claiming land for England rather than establishing a settlement. Additionally, the harsh climate and limited agricultural potential made it challenging for settlers to thrive. Instead, Cabot's discoveries led to increased fishing activity in the region, which became the main economic focus.
The Gulf Stream. Warm moist air flows from the Mexican Gulf Region North East over the UK
With the climate harsh there is a short growing season, there for there are small farms than the middle colonies.
New England farms were smaller because with cold climate,poor soil and short growing season to stop agriculture.The Southern Colonies were like the opposite.
The Gulf Stream makes England's climate much warmer than it would otherwise be. The Gulf Stream originates at the tip of Florida, and along with the North Atlantic Drift, follows the eastern coastlines of the United States and Newfoundland before crossing the Atlantic Ocean.
Even though it has a more northerly latitude, England has a much warmer climate than Nova Scotia. The Gulf Stream, together with its northern extension towards Europe, the North Atlantic Drift, is a powerful, warm, and swift Atlantic ocean current that originates in the Gulf of Mexico, exits through the Strait of Florida, and follows the eastern coastlines of the United States and Newfoundland before crossing the Atlantic Ocean
Gulf Stream.
Because the Gulf Stream brings warmer waters across the Atlantic which affects the climate of parts of Western Europe, including the United Kingdom. As a result it does not get the same extremes of cold weather that Newfoundland gets.

The climate near the equator is warmer than most other places because the sun is closest to the equator.
The climate near the equator is warmer than most other places because the sun is closest to the equator.
Geogia is warmer than Washington because Geogia is closer to the equator.
The climate of New England was generally very similar to England or France, with only minor differences. It was a maritime climate (which means that its temperature is cooler in the summer but warmer in the winter than further in-land) and this climate helped promote growing crops because winter was shorter and growing season longer. The climate was not, however, well-suited to growing special tropical crops, like tobacco, indigo, or sugar, because it was note warm enough. The level of rain was less than England at the time but higher than the modern Midwest.
The land area of Newfoundland and Labradoris approximately 3 times greater than England, but the population of England is approximately 100 times greater than Newfoundland and Labrador. It's a bit crowded!
Generally, England has warmer temperatures than Scotland. As many parts of Scotland are on higher ground, Scotland is more prone to snow. England is further south from Scotland which is in the Northern hemisphere thus making it warmer.
Warmer than a Fat Chick.
