The mid-Atlantic US is quite mild in all dimensions of weather. It’s hot in the summer but not at a level where people keep keeling over. It’s sometimes a bit cold in the winter but nothing too bad. Hurricanes are greatly moderated if they make it that far. Thunderstorms don’t build up that much. Tornadoes happen occasionally but never big ones.

The Inauguration Day Windstorm was one of the few times I've seen almost everything shut down. Earthquakes - I never went through anything major, but when you get the queasy feeling in your stomach and realize that it's the building slowly swaying side to side - that can be unsettling. The other quake occurred just after the plane I was in had taken off from SeaTac. Pilot then announced that Seattle had just experienced a minor earthquake, people were reaching for the in-seat phones to call and check on their loved ones.
