I’ll gladly trade someone a spot in Florida. I’m ready to go somewhere with seasons.

- taylodl 5y agoThat's why I ruled out Florida as a place to move to: no seasons. I'm looking for milder winters, but not no winter at all. Southern Tennessee looks attractive, specifically Chattanooga.
- the_only_law 5y agoI’ve only ever passed through but I’ve heard great things about Chattanooga for years.
- madcaptenor 5y agoI live near Atlanta. There are definitely seasons even this far south (although our "winters" are kind of a joke).
- the_only_law 5y agoHah, I grew up in the Atlanta area. I actually returned there briefly for some work parties late last year. I knew I had begun to adapt to Florida weather when Atlanta winter had me paralyzed.
- madcaptenor 5y agoI grew up in the Philadelphia area, then went to Boston (college), back to Philly (grad school), San Francisco, now Atlanta. I like just a little bit of cold, so Atlanta winter is about right. But whenever it snows in Atlanta I think "hey, I know how to drive in snow!" and start laughing at how people here don't. But I don't know how to drive in snow, because I didn't learn to drive until not long before I left for college, and I didn't have a car in college or grad school.
- meragrin_ 5y agoOther reasons to rule out Florida: fire ants, mosquitoes, mosquito spraying, love bugs, huge roaches, spiders the size of you hands, near constant heat and humidity, consist afternoon rain which makes the heat and humidity so much worse, hurricanes, sink holes.
- meragrin_ 5y agoWhy aren't you ready to go somewhere without fire ants, mosquitoes, mosquito spraying, love bugs, huge roaches, spiders the size of you hands, near constant heat and humidity, consist afternoon rain which makes the heat and humidity so much worse, hurricanes, sink holes, and whatever else I forgot?
