Unfortunately, we can't fully predict the final results. But we do know that as average temperature rise weather conditions will be more chaotic, extreme and unpredictable.
And, yes its entirely possible that some parts of the world may become more pleasant while other parts become intolerable. Its that very shift that is the problem global warming brings for both the natural and built environment. The environmental, human health, social and economic consequences will be staggering even as places like Siberia could become more temperate. Imagine the cost of moving literally billions of people from flooded coastal areas to their new homes in Siberia. To suggest that human society could easily sustain such a drammatic shift in human settlements is incredibly naive.
