And so few days of huge lake effect snow. Those same mountains also repel hurricanes. I heart the mountains.

The clouds are necessary to repel hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, droughts, forest fires and earthquakes. They also limited our UV damage.

Grew up here and moved to Wisconsin, too. Cold. Moved to Florida, too hot and humid, moved to Cape Town. No water. Came home happy for fertile ground and lots of days with neither heat or air conditioning. I'll take the clouds.
