I live in FLA and we deal with stuff like this weekly in the summer. Get over it.

I live in PA, and we deal with snowstorms all winter. Maybe it would be tough for you to deal with that.

I’m from St. Louis area originally. Been living near New Orleans for the past 30+ years. I remember one winter it snowed down here. About 1/4” of accumulation. Total devastation. Had to shut down the entire town. All the bridges. Elevated interstate was littered with traffic accidents. Schools closed. Government services shutdown.

What a mess.

We had a snow storm here in Tampa last year. It got down to 27 degrees!!!! BRRRR They almost called out the national guard to save the strawberries.

Hey, I will be honest and say emphatically that I wouldn’t want to deal with it, wouldn’t deal with it. I spent a couple of months visiting a friend in Chicago one winter. I think I saw the sun maybe 2-3 days, enough snow, mud and dirty streets to last me a lifetime. Haven’t been up north in the winter since then, don’t intend to. Besides in the winter all the northerners are down here occupying my guest rooms to escape that crap.
