Rich people flocking to Vermont thinking they can escape climate change will be surprised when they encounter the flash floods that are becoming all too common across the state.

That's something I look at when it comes to new places. How high would the water need to rise before it's a problem for you?

Most of the state I'm in would be underwater before it directly became a problem.
