North, as soon as you pop out of the peninsula, you've got lots and lots of options.
I'm in Emeryville, on the little peninsula that sticks out into the bay next to the Bay Bridge. It is 103° right now and I face the water and it is just across the street. Not seeing any fog over SF yet. We'll just have to think cool thoughts and drink plenty of fluids.
one problem with moving out of Florida is...its a giant fucking peninsula. It is physically difficult, time consuming, and draining just to drive out of the place. Other states? You can pick a direction, and go, and its relatively straightforward. This place? A long slog just to Georgia.
There's some great bbc doubling in there too. "Vienna," "malta," "the kola peninsula," "east berlin."
The thing I like about North Florida is how different it is from the rest of the state. The peninsula is very snowbird coded, but up here it's like entire counties that are just large-scale geological and cultural manifestations of Bitchin Wizard Art on a Shitty Van.
On further thought, the 850mb pattern is likely contributing to Milton's track shift to dive further south toward the Yucatan Peninsula compared to previous runs.
If it's 103℉ on the SF Bay Area Peninsula at 4:44pm on October 6th, temps having risen steadily all day, I can only hope the polar ice caps are OK
