This is because, technically speaking, Falskaar is very high up on the game's z-axis. When you're walking around Falskaar, it's as if you're walking around on the Throat of the World. Survival Mode performs height checks in addition to its other regional checks - the higher up you are, the colder you will be. Therefore, due to its height, the game interprets Falskaar as being very, very cold. Now I don't know why Falskaar was made so high up on the game's z-axis, but I do know that it makes Survival Mode a pain - and nonsensically so, given the lore of the region.
This is the kind of information I've been looking for. I've been wondering how vanilla Survival Mode determines cold and warm weather for the sake of Wyrmstooth. Any idea if Wyrmstooth suffers the same affliction?
Thank you for this fix. I didn't know about that. I have survival mode enabled and didn't enter falskaar yet so I'm glad I found it and won't freeze to death. lol

PS: Apologies as this is about another mod, but it seems a similar pattern.
