Psh yourself, we have burning desert in the summer with Rattle snakes, hobo spiders and black widows. We have real winter not some little wind off the ocean, we have avalanches and……
A big volcano
Oh yeah, we’re on an earthquake fault too
Over to you
Almost forgot the Grizzlies
- Avalanches ✓
- Blizzards ✓
- Nor’easters ✓
- Hurricanes (projections indicate they will be more frequently hitting us in the future, with Fiona unfortunately just being a preview) ✓
- Floods (see above) ✓
- Brown Recluses (non-native) ✓
- Bears ✓
- Moose ✓
- Heatwaves (getting worse each year and our region is actually heating faster than most other areas in the US) ✓
- Earthquakes (major east coast fault runs straight through our city) ✓
Oh, and Maine’s mean summer temperature is the same as Idaho’s (will likely become higher in the next decade) but our mean winter temperature is 9 degrees F lower.
We also, on average, get over twice as much snow annually than Idaho (second highest average in the US behind Vermont). ;-)
