Hello I would like to move to Florida when I retire but I am concerned about hurricanes, my question, is their a city in florida that would less likely to get hit by a hurricane? I have been told to choose somewere that's located away from the coast,

Asked by Louie over 5 years ago

Great question, Louie. If you do a Google Image search for landfalling Florida hurricanes you'll let a lot of information. Here is a Wikipedia page that has great information. Just know that the speed and angle of approach makes a difference. For example a hurricane hitting Miami moving from east to west is a different outcome than one moving south to north. You might also poke around on the website for the National Hurricane Center. Happy retirement! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Florida_hurricanes and https://www.nhc.noaa.gov/

When snow is forecast, how is it determined what the accumulation will be?

Asked by Richard Ferstandig over 6 years ago

Different computer forecast models will give guidance on the amount of liquid. Snow totals are variable based largely on the temperature profile of the atmosphere above the ground. A general rule is about 9-10 inches of snow per inch of liquid, variable based on several factors, including forecaster experience in the area. Great question.

I live in the SF Bay area on the peninsula, where I have a lot of trouble with migraine headaches caused by changes in air pressure, especially in the fall. I'm moving inland to Sacramento. Any chance the barometer will be kinder to me there?

Asked by Judith over 7 years ago

Great question, Judith. I must say I'm not really familiar with SF climatology. In general air pressure changes with the movement of weather systems so a short move might not have a big effect. But local topography could come into play. I'll suggest your local National Weather Service office would find your question interesting. Good luck!
