Congrats, you liked where you lived. I honestly think that's awesome. Not sure that what I had to say about it would mean anything to you then, unless you feel deep down I am right. Otherwise, my opinion wouldn't matter. Except that it's a shared opinion by many others.
I've been to Buffalo, would never return. I honestly don't know or care about what happened in the city 100 years ago. I am sure it was a great city then, as others in the US were too. Detroit, Cleveland. In fact what you said actually adds to my argument. All of these cities were great, they aren't any longer.
You also rattled off a ton of things that wouldn't happen in the city, hunting, fishing, camping. Honestly if that is your bag, there aren't too many places in all of the US that can't fit those bills. Colorado has all that too. In fact, I can't think of a state in the union that doesn't.
Like I said, I feel bad for the actual fans because nobody of any significance is going to want to be there. It's not a nice place. Cleveland got lucky with LeBron to grow up there and for him to give them a championship, by the sweat of his brow. Maybe someday buffalo can get lucky too, or perhaps return to being a great city again.
Yeah it's not a nice? I have lived coast to coast and there are in fact some nice cities and gems everywhere like San Diego but your take on it doesn't matter just like your comment "I've been to Buffalo" People and athletes alike that never lived in Western New York just read the headlines of "snow" and that makes your opinion. This place has 4 seasons with a Lake to the west that creates similar conditions to San Diego when it's not winter. There is more to do in this city all year around because of the 4 seasons and when ranking weather it is important to take into account of what you can do with it. I can do everything that San Diego does at times throughout the year , like go to the beach, festivals everywhere for every nationality, bike ride, run, boating etc. but I can't snow mobile, ski, sled, or play pond hockey in San Dog. I understand there is a correlation to fair weather all year and hot little bikini bodies running around but once you land one there is not a better place to bring them to
but here in western New York to raise a family.
US Cities with Best Weather… Drum Roll Please!
Just when you think you’ve heard it all, Buffalo continues to surprise. This time, Buffalo has ended up at the top of a surprising list – a weather ranking actually.
Instead of closing your eyes and plugging your ears, you might want to hear what Weather Underground has to say.
Buffalo was recently ranked #1 when it comes to US cities with the best weather. After reading this, there’s probably not one person out there that didn’t raise an eyebrow or cough. And if you think that this is a big joke… think again. The rating results are being broadcasted everywhere, from local
TV stations to online gaming sites. Readers on
this particular site had a good chuckle in the comment section.
“But when you start to look at time spent outdoors, you learn what conditions truly have mass appeal. An average temperature of 78 degrees might sound ideal but when you see activity drop significantly during the middle of the day because it’s 100 degrees outside, you get a truer sense of how the weather is being used.”
Is Bartoo surprised to see Buffalo surpass a big-name weather city like San Diego? “Not really,” he says. “Each benefits from having a big body of water just to the west, which really moderates temperature and gives a broad inventory of usable outdoor time. San Diego is starting to face some population issues that impact the weather — like air quality — and that’s a problem a smaller city like Buffalo doesn’t have.”
OnPoint goes on to say that the results were compiled over the last decade, not just this past year. Obviously it snows in Buffalo, and some winters are worse than others. If you don’t like snow, then Buffalo’s not for you. Spring, summer and fall are incredible… and if you like winter as well, then Buffalo is the place to be. There’s something to be said about living in a four season city.
