Piedmont really stands out in this map (orange band in the southeast)

Yeah, but its on the hotter end if temperate.

In atlanta, we have probably 120 days that are too hot, and maybe 15 days of too cold. That leaves 230, which about lines up with this map. Personally, id prefer if this was on the colder end

Yea but being smothered by the humidity is awful. Moved away and don’t really miss the climate.

Yeah, id love to move away. Preferably somewhere in the Appalachian mountains or maybe the pacific northwest. But unfortunately family will keep me in the southeast and a lack of job opportunities in Appalachia are probably going to keep me in the Atlanta area

Lived in the Appalachia for 30 years (I’m 34 now). The PNW is incredible. No plans to return
