Climate change and weather wreak havoc on your vacation? ‘It’s only gonna get worse.’

I feel like I write this column over and over again. It’s probably not the last time. About a month ago I explained that my long-planned Amtrak trip to Montreal, for which my son and I were learning French, had been canceled because of the heat from Canadian wildfires, a literal casualty of climate change. Undeterred, I pivoted, adding stops in Mystic, Connecticut, and Maine, with a longer stint in New York on either end.
