As one who fled the Midwest because of the summers (in part, at least), the Midwest warming up isn't even close to the selling point you make it out to be. I'll take shoveling feet of snow every winter over sweating through every layer of my clothing from April to October. The PNW warming up (and the heatwaves you mentioned) is a problem in and of itself, but it's still generally a place where, for 7-8 months of the year or so, I can comfortably wear hoodies and avoid sunburns and swamp ass.
