9/11/2007If you need medical care, this is a great place to be. With Wake Forest University Baptist Medical Center and Forsyth Hospital, we can handle just about anything. The presence of the hospitals means that the city is full of physicians of all types.
But you may need them. The air quality here is pretty bad as a result of factory pollution drifting down from the Midwest and our own autos. It's superior to LA or Beijing, but that's not saying much. Combine that with heat and humidity and you may have problems.

9/11/2007Winters are fine here. It is not Florida, and it can get very cold. (I remember a day at -1 a few tears back.) But that's the exception.
In contrast, summers are awful. We have had almost 60 days this year of 90-degree+ high temperatures, and humidity to match.
