The relative merits of being in Connecticut
Earthquakes in California.
Hurricanes and Floods in Florida and the Southeastern U.S.
Volcanoes in Washington State.
Meanwhile, we get a bit of rain from the remnants of Hurricanes Ivan and Jeanne. Come winter, we’ll get snow. But we won’t get snow like the Great Lakes region of New York or Chicago. Plus, we get one hell of a show come October when the trees change colors.
Every place has some advantage to living in it, I suppose. I prefer the relative lack of massively destructive weather here in CT. Say what you will, but 2 feet of snow doesn’t do near the damage of a category 3 hurricane. And snow looks better when it’s falling than rain.
Given the tradeoffs to move somewhere else, I’ll stay here, thanks. At least I’m used to what Mother Nature throws at me. I kinda like the variety.
