Miami, Massachusetts???



Boston residents looking to retire won’t have to fly to Miami to relocate, because the blistering heat most often associated with parts of Florida could one day become the norm in the city.

According to Climate Control, a non-profit organization that focuses on climate change patterns and the impacts of emissions on our environment, claims that by 2100 Boston’s average summer-high temperatures will likely be more than 10 degrees Fahrenheit hotter than they are now, “making it feel as steamy as North Miami Beach is today.”

The group, based in New Jersey, created a new interactive map, which can be seen above, that shows what they predict certain cities will feel like by the end of this century. For Boston, the future of summer will be reminiscent of a sweltering vacation in the Sunshine State.

It's on Route Two in the Berkshires, just East of North Adams. Gets pretty snowy in the winter, at least for now.
