I am in Tennessee. I am far from any ocean, yet located on a river controlled (thank you) by TVA. Tornadoes go to the west of us. Hurricanes to the east. Earthquakes are rare, and on those odd occasions (I am told) are almost unfelt. Winters are generally mild, summers are hot, yet there are mountains which are breezy and there is nature all over the place.
The only downside so far as I can tell is the retrograde politics, but that “climate” is breaking out all over, it seems.
