in the Southeast, it's going to take years and years and years for the weather to change to the degree that it might cause the types of effects you're talking here. Deserts aren't created overnight. Furthermore, if this progression towards desertification does exists, it's more likely that there will still be the usual shorter term cycles of dry and wet periods. It's been dry enough in the Southeast for long enough, that we are probably not far away from our next wet period.
Also, don't be so quick to assume hot, dry weather will create some sort of mass exodous from your area. I mean it's hotter in Florida than it is here, so basically what this means is that the old fogies from the North have less distance to travel. The Southeast could become one giant retirement community. We've already got the golf courses to support it.
But seriously, you would be crazy to let global warming predictions, especially unrealistic ones, affect this decision. |

you've got to be kidding me. Look, even if global warming eventually has the effect you are predicting ... New
