I wonder if a hurricane will slow the northern invasion?


May 5, 2021, 3:17 PM

Colorado State University (CSU) predicts 17 named storms with the Atlantic hurricane season 2021. That is 40 percent (5 named storms) more than an average hurricane season. That also includes 4 major hurricanes.

If a hurricane, like say Dorian (Cat 5), were to sit on top of the Charleston/Georgetown/Horry county areas for 24 hours (or more), how many of these yankees would move right back where they came from?

How many would take their insurance money and run?

I'd imagine flipping opportunities would make it worse.***

Pretty sure the trend of folks moving south is not


May 5, 2021, 4:43 PM

changing anytime soon. No matter the storms, heat, or any of that. Folks are moving to the south because of the weather. And if a storm or two threatens - nobody cares until it happens.

I'm not talking about a storm that threatens

I'm talking about a direct hit of hurricane Hugo part II, suped up on climate change steroids.

For about 2 years after Hugo, this place was a ghost town.

Why?


May 5, 2021, 4:49 PM

Of the people I talk to that move here from up there, weather is about 3rd or 4th on the list of why they come here. Normally it starts with "the people are so nice", moves on to "and housing is so cheap" then "how beautiful it is here", then finally, get to taxes and cost of living.

They leave a terrible area, then come here and immediately start trying to make it like it was there.

If we wanted to live in an area with rude people, too much traffic that is too crowded, expensive, highly taxed, overly governed area, we'd just move up north.
