Where will you go? Will you stay and just try and tough it out?
We will move to upstate New York - already have a house up there and plan on hanging on to it so we can escape the heat. Plenty of water, lots of land to grow fresh vegetables and cool air. The stories from the southwest are terrifying. It doesn't get cooler than 90 degrees at nighttime! That is insane!

South isn't particularly hotter than DMV. Or upstate NY in the summer. Just muggier.

I feel the opposite. I find it easier to cope with cold. I also think the DMV is already too hot.

This just contributes to climate change. That doesn't seem like a smart way to deal with it. Upstate New York is most definitely cooler than the DMV in the summer. At night we have a fire outside still (temps are in the low 60s) and can sit outside still.
