Yeah, the wind blows sometimes, but it is really nice here, especially compared to South Florida.
I lived on Kirtland AFB for four years. We were in the process of moving out of base housing to go overseas and had all of our belongings boxed up and on the floor when the house started flooding.
In the four years that I lived there that was the only time I remember having a flash flood.
I loved the weather there. Not too hot in the summer and not terribly cold in the winter. Just wind storms in the spring.
I live up on the mesa in Rio Rancho. If I got hit by a flash flood I would expect to see an old guy with a bunch of animals in a boat going by...
