Does Germany get as bad of storms as the US? This article seems to say the US has worse weather than Europe:
> the colonists who arrived in the New World from Europe during the seventeenth century and found North American weather to be, in a word, hellish.

- binkethy 2y agoWhat a weird take. Europe has extreme weather to match North America. Any Texans wanting to talk about their special case can have a look at Iberia and its meteorology, for example. The notion that North American weather is anomalistic is false.
- Thorrez 2y agoI'm not the one that came up with the idea that the US has worse weather. I got the idea from that article. >The volatile weather in the eastern United States differs from the more moderate climates of western Europe because it is largely controlled by eastward-flowing air masses that approach over land instead of air masses that arrive from over the ocean and cause temperatures to shift more gradually. Europe doesn't have hurricanes. Europe has 1/4 as many tornadoes as the US. Which part of Iberia's weather are you referring to?
