How many of you are considering a move in the next few years, and if you are, how big of a factor is the climate where you currently are? I won't be able to retire for 10 years and want to finish with 30 years with my current employer so I can't consider moving till then. But I would move for more snow. The problem is I don't like hot weather so that limits where I would be willing to go. I was actually looking at coastal New Hampshire for fun a couple of days ago. I would also consider moving for political reasons if things continue like they are around here. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a joke that they can all be so different within 3-4 days....sad really. Looks to me like the GFS is sadly a cold outlier. Euro, GEM, and ICON are all in agreement. That said, I have a hard time believing that Alaskan vortex is going to sit right in between of the ridge.

Not saying thats going to happen, but the GFS solution does not have the Euro's support right now.

I assume next year there will be more snow as this has been a horrible year for snow in this area. Pictures taken about 5 days ago.
