I got my Air Force Basic Training at Sampson AFB south of Geneva along Lake Seneca 54 years ago. My outfit was all guys from Michigan and should have been used to damp northern winters, but the weather in March, April, and the first half of May at Sampson was too much for a lot of them. Most of the city raised boys got pneumonia and spent time at the hospital. I was lucky I guess, I was raised on the farm here in southern Michigan and didn't get sick at all.

Your little guy will get used to the weather and want to get out more I bet, especially if you get some snow.
