Duluth! My favorite place that I've never been to.... yet.
One of the few outdoor activities that doesn't make me less than pleasant, is sitting along the 3rd base line at Kauffman Stadium (so I'm in the shade, at least for an evening game), with the largest souvenir cup possible, full of some sort of carbonation. Even when the Royals lose, I don't sweat it... during the last several years, it's been customary for them to do so.
and it can get pretty darn hot in KC, the average high is 93 in July, and it can get well into the 100s during a heat wave.
The average high is 90F for July.
The winter averages are super inflated these days so I pay no attention to them.
The official temperatures are taken at KCI, and few people live near that area. However, I did see more disgusting cookie cutter developments when I flew into the KCI airport a couple weeks ago. It was pretty depressing.

It gets into the 90's regularly around here. On average, there might be a week or so of 100+ temps. If you go deep into Kansas, the temps go up. The good thing is that the 90+ stuff generally lasts for only 2 months instead of 5 or 6. There's usually a nice break in the heat from time to time.
Yes, the Royals won. They look to be much better this year. Not basing that on one game, they've been getting better for a while now.
I've checked out a few places I was interested in, but definitely don't want to move to a state that's hit by tornadoes regularly, or has any extreme weather
Are there any places that are considered safer/better as far as weather conditions?
Not saying this because I live here, but I would have to say northeast Tennessee, or anywhere in the southern Appalachains overall (southwest Virginia, western North Carolina, eastern Tennessee, northeastern Georgia or upstate South Carolina. Summers are not too terribly hot (when compared to the rest of the southeast - thanks to the higher elevations), winters are not too cold (thanks to being in the south), not as many tornadoes (thanks to the terrain), not too much snow (we barely get 8-10 inches per year where I live), not too many earthquakes, etc. Shall I go on?
Tennesseestorm, Northeast Tennessee- is that anywhere near the Great Smoky Mountains? Went through there a few years ago & it was so beautiful I really fell in love w/ the scenery. Nice people out there, too. Sure, if ya' have any more, go on...
The A- team, There are really a lot of folks recommending Southern California- can't wait to check it out this summer =D
The best over-all climate in the USA is San Diego, CA. San Diego, also known as America's Finest City, is situated next to the Pacific Ocean and has the most moderate climate anywhere in the US.
The best climate anywhere in the US is, hands down, San Diego, CA. There is nothing anywhere in the USA with a better climate.
