What's the minimum fixed charges?

I mean, by that time people may have developed those suits that recycle the water in your body so you only lose a few ml per day if you're out in the desert...

It’s not even cheaper

I'm not sure why so many people are moving to a desert. Its puzzling

I just looked it up and they aren't but Santa Clarita and Lancaster are closer and their numbers have always been nice and green. Maybe just the way the wind blows and settles?

I need to get off that site; it's not good for my head.

I’m moving to Midcoast Maine. I’m far too excited for all that coastline. Plus I’m almost as close to the whites where I’m moving as I am now. I don’t know if I could ever leave New England. I love the entire area. Even Massachusetts.

It’s happening in CT today, we suspect Ohio.

I loved arizona but even dry heat ain’t it. There are mountains though. Definitely a different look and most aren’t nearly as high as our average summit. But none are tree covered that I could see at least there’s that!

I moved to CA 20 years ago and lived and grew up in NH for 23 years and my first 5 years out here I loved that there was no snow and humidity as I'm on the ocean out here but after about 5 years I did start missing the snow and the humidity. I also miss the white mountains. Also Christmas just doesn't feel the same without snow. I do love all the sunny days but I also miss the thunder storms, as we almost never get them out here. I have family back there and visiting is always fun . I never realized how gorgeous NH really was especially in the winter cuz I grew up there nevermind the fall foliage.

I grew up in NH and now I live in Los Angeles (and have for a decade) - I like it here, but I miss home a lot. My husband jokes that he has to make sure I get back once a year to recharge my batteries. The last time we were home, for a friend's wedding, I made him just sit on a rock in the woods with me for a bit to enjoy all the greenery because there's just not much like it out where we are. There's beauty everywhere, and I'm sure you'll find things you really love about AZ, but it's hard not to miss New England!

I’m a NH resident but have been away from NH for years for my spouses job and I completely understand what you mean. It’s great out west, and the desert is beautiful, but there’s something about NH that’s so special and homey. One thing I really missed living in the desert was the delineation in the seasons. In the winter it just kind of gradually gets colder, windier, and more grey. There’s usually a bloom in the spring but that and the temp increasing around May/June is the only real “the season has now changed” indication, versus in New England where you can clearly tell that the seasons are changing and there are different stages of change.

I wish you luck in AZ! Keep in mind it may look desolate and ugly (and it can be), but there is a lot of life in the desert if you’re willing to slow down and take it all in. Take more water than you need everywhere, even in the winter, because the dry air will seriously dehydrate you.

I feel almost the exact opposite. I also grew up in NH and live in Denver now. I’ll never move back. I do kinda miss the years in lived in Portland ME, but the winters were so harsh.

It’s feels to me like NH rejected me. It really couldn’t be a worse cultural match for me. I’m glad I figured it out, because a lot of my friends that are still there really hate it but will not leave for some reason.

I like Colorado, but I might move to the PNW at some point because I miss the water.

There is an important thing to mention here. A lot of people are smelling things or seeing a brown film on their car all over the Northeast. Then they are getting on Reddit and asking, presumably because there is little about environmental disaster from the derailment of a Norfolk Southern train in Ohio .

There is nothing much in the major media about the rail disaster in Ohio because the biggest shareholders of Norfolk Southern Railroad are also the biggest shareholders of MSNBC CNN Fox CBS ABC.

This video has the details, but if you have the time you could also verify this for yourself.

Hopefully not Phoenix, what a hellscape.

I am not going anywhere unless it's another state in New England. Also, someone has to outnumber the stupid freestaters.

We’ve barely had winter this year

I’m in Concord and had black raindrops all over my car this morning as did several of my friends. I just went through the car wash so I know it’s not dirt.

Southern NH and I paid very close attention. Smelled like the neighborhood skunk again.

It’s there now - big yellow dot - and headed straight for NYC!

Maybe its this: https://www.reddit.com/r/vermont/comments/1144k45/apparently_were_going_to_get_some_of_the_fallout/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

There are plenty of good restaurants in southern NH and the Seacoast.

Hey any update on this? I saw other projections which have the cloud coming right over update NY, Canada, and over here!

Seacoast NH has some really excellent food! I lived in Boston for 5 years and honestly missed a lot of the restaurants up in the area here...the quality is generally a lot better especially for what you're paying and it's so much easier to eat gluten free up here
