Flip this logic around whenever a hurricane heads north of the Mason Dixon.
Agree to some extent, but if a Category 2 hurricane makes direct landfall on Boston (or some parts of New York/New Jersey apparently as we saw with Sandy) it would destroy everything from the Harbor all the way up through the Back Bay area (it's all landfill). I don't remember what the standard is on a direct hit to the barrier NC islands, but it seems like the south is just better equipped for that. Just like the north is better equipped for snow storms.
I guess I agree with your post in general then hah.
