Buffalo as a Climate Change Haven

These are the days Western New Yorkers celebrate and cheer.  It is the holiday season, the Bills are winning and the Sabres are playing better.  And now it appears that there is scientific evidence supporting the pop-up "coffee talk" conversations taking place among residents suggesting that Buffalo is a safe haven as dramatic climate events strike across the country.
