People were saying that about Vermont, then last summer they had massive flooding that put cities under several feet of water.
I knew a lot of, frankly over-confident people who moved to New England because the news told them it was good for Climate Change. I think the “experts” know a lot less about Climate Change impacts to weather than they want to admit.
- ghaff 3y agoYou do get flooding and at least residual hurricanes in New England. e.g. [1] Depends where your house is of course. Some properties are probably pretty well-situated; others much less so. Just about a month ago the city next door to me in MA got a freak foot of rain which caused some serious flooding. I had to pump water out of my basement for the first time in years. Very few places are immune to at least local natural disasters of various types and some of those, like the Vegas area have their own long-term issues.
