You implied that the very indeed flat land of NJ - hardly ever subject to hurricanes/TS, mind you - is 1 of those places “you should never live”.
Thus did I respond to you, that most places in the US would be “uninhabitable” by those very strict standards.
“You implied that the very indeed flat land of NJ - hardly ever subject to hurricanes/TS, mind you - is 1 of those places you should never live.”
I implied nothing of the sort. I did not imply “all’ of New Jesrey at all. On the contrary.
All of us in New Jersey, when Hurricanes come up the Atlantic coast can experience high winds and rain from them, sometimes even when they have come ashore south of New Jersey, but in the least comprehensive damaging of such storms the living-on-a-sand-bar shore towns are ALWAYS affected and quite of the worst affected and in the worst situations it is inevitable they are the worst affected, and alwsys subjected greater ill affects than communities no more than a few miles inland; AND these same communities are in the same situation with any Atlantic ocean born storm, Hurricane or not.
Like I said, we - in New Jersey - are beginning to take steps in this state to buy out residents nearly always affected from the perinnally flooded areas on some of our rivers, instead of picking up the rebuilding bills year after year. We should start to do the same with our almost always worst-hit shore towns. Nature has been saying they should have been planted further back from the shore and everyone ignored all the natural signals - not randam, not occasional, not once now and again but constant.
