Do you think bad weather is a good reason for moving? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Would you uproot your life, leaving behind your family, your job etc if you dont like the weather in a country.

(Obviously theres always more than one advantage of moving someplace but to build a life somewhere, would weather be top 3 factors in choosing where to live).

I think of most of the middle east as coastal places less than actual middle of the desert life. I don't get the appeal of living in US states like Arizona or Nevada.

I grew up in Alabama/Tennessee/Georgia with all of those trees, rivers, and forests. I have to say, the bugs and extreme humidity make the heat unbearable.

I live in Southern California now and moved here because it is the best weather in the world in a few small pockets very close to the coast. It is 15°-25° year round here.

I don't know of any place with trees and rivers that is devoid of a terrible season or four.
