You'd have to define "never" - in recorded history? Since the formation of the earth?

Seems a reasonable question to me (other than the "never")... basically the answer should be: very maritime locales near continually modest water temperatures?  Because you're only allowing for about 25°C range over the course of the year.

Never was imprecise. Let's go with never recorded in modern times (for example, since 1850).

@trondhansen it's conjecture of course, but even in the country we originate from tropical nights are rare. I would say it's unlikely that places like Tynset and Karasjok have ever had one.

What are some places that have never recorded an "ice day" nor a "tropical night"?
