QDoes manhattan have major weather problems?

Nope .. not really Hurricanes - always a potential problem , but until we have never been beaten by one more . Volcanoes - uh no Earthquakes - the minor possible, but never had a big . Blizzards / winter storms --- probably the greatest threat to the bad weather . New York has been buried in 2-3 feet of snow and brutal conditions . But storms , as they usually only come once every 15-20 years or so . Heat Waves --- eh not really. But Nyers are babies on the heat . If it gets into the 90 senior people freak out. It is not unknown for 100 degree heat breaks, but ussualy only seniors are afffected why . Floods - . Generally not a problem Tornados - although not impossible , the most important are rare in the Northeast. Ussualy are very isolated and do not cause much damage.

Huh ? Ummm no! Manhattan is part of New York City . We have never had volcanoes , earthquakes and tornadoes. However, I have heard of some towns in neighboring New Jerseyy who have had tornadoes.

Well, there was a tornado in Brooklyn neighbor a few years ago . No volcanoes . Earthquakes are very rare , and even those who never biger 2.5 . The Weather Channel is trying to scare people that a major hurricane could devastate the city , but has never gotten more than Manhattan

Manhattan is a major flaw . Most earthquakes are not felt. is forced to go one day . besides that, the occasional snowstorm is all .

New Jersey . But seriously , no catastrophic natural disasters that occur in New York . The landscape is not flat enough for tornadoes , the city is not near fault lines to have volcanoes or earthquakes and hurricanes hit south too . The worst weather we received was 100 ° (heat waves stay hydrated ) , or snowstorms ( take the subway ) .

Volcanoes ? ? ! ! No.

Occasional blizzards or hurricanes.

Defiantly not. Manhattan is a beautiful place to go especially in the summer or fall. The only problem you will ever have with weather is during the winter if there is a blizzard. Defiantly a place to visit once ion your life time.

No. We have snow but it usually goes away pretty quickly as there is so much traffic it doesn't tend to stick around for long.
