Just to match my other thread title.

All you fellow east coasters ready for the east coast apocalypse? First we get an earthquake, then the hurricane! What's next, a tsunami? Sheesh.

That's why I moved to Florida.... to get away from the hurricane-prone northeast....

Lamborghini_diablo · « **Reply #2 on:** August 25, 2011, 08:07:35 PM »

And I'm gonna move to California to get away from these crazy earthquakes.

You guys complaining about weather?

We don't get hurricanes much out here though Kittens. Lucky for you however when that hurricane is gone thats it. When a blizzards over? Theres still 12 feet of snow to take care of.

Notice I didn't say "hurricane" but "weather."

I'd also like to point out that you are not FROM Rochester, you go to school here, and you've only had to survive one, fairly mild WNY winter.

Say that to flooded roads and houses. It takes at least a day for our road to stop being a river after hurricanes.

9 months of the year isn't good enough for you? I've also survived 19 (some fairly wild) Central NY winters.

It takes at least a week for all that snow to melt, and as its melting my whole town is a river.

Lake. Effect. Snow. You don't get that in Oneonta, or at least when it gets to you its already done. And considering you were on a cruise ship for some of the worst of the winter....

You want weird weather,move to Texas. The only state where you can experience all 4 seasons in one day. You wake up to it snowing(winter), lunchtime-its breezy with leaves falling(fall), around 3pm the sun is blazing in the sky(summer) and when you settle down in the night,you notice that its raining(spring). Ain't Texas weather great!

There's a nice interactive tracker to help predict how hard you'll get hit.

I don't remember the last time we've had a snow day. We had a shut down due to extreme cold...

I didn't think there were any schools in MT...I thought the whole state was just one huge National Park that people just hung out in sometimes...

If by National Park, you mean the most beautiful & relaxing place to live in the continental US, then you would be right!

Hmm... 2 weeks without electricity, downed trees everywhere... in the middle of a heat wave. No thanks, I'll pass this year. '05 was bad enough. After a direct hit by a Cat 3 or 4 of course, not a 2. Enjoy the unusual while you can.

Two years ago we had a -40 windchill (-20 something without it) and there was still school, not even a delay. My district isn't big on delays.
