I loved Virginia in October, and usually April, but that was about it. After 4 years there, we moved away from NoVA in July 2011, with an awful heat wave while we were packing the moving truck for 3 days; the heat index was 115-120 degrees Fahrenheit. It was simply awful. I've since moved back to the PNW and while we didn't need a/c when I was a child or young adult, it has become pretty miserable here for more than the formerly manageable two weeks of misery.

I don't mind hot days if I can cool down overnight. Anything over 70 degrees makes it hard for me to sleep, and perimenopause hasn't helped.

We love it here in Maine and talk about ,moving further north or downeast for similar reasons (also less people and more pretty scenery). You are definitely allowed to come on up!
