We had a fairly mild winter here in Michigan. My snowplow provider definitely came out ahead this year. Though the way climate change leads to extremes means it's unlikely we'll just have our same climate a few degrees warmer.
I think we're especially well-suited because of our water resources—the Great Lakes are an extremely valuable asset. We just emerged from the worst drought in 90 years, but we didn't even have lawn irrigation restrictions put in place. And here in West Michigan, the lake also mitigates a lot of severe weather (the number of bad storms in Chicago that are mere whimpers by the time they reach us...).
