Having lived my entire life in the middle of the country, I've grown up
hearing the phrase "If you don't like the weather in (fill in your
favorite state name), just wait a few minutes". The same thing applies
to space weather, i.e. HF propagation conditions.
As proof, this was just tweeted by the ARRL as I'm reading this thread:

Solar flux was 144 earlier today and the sunspot number was 122. "Enjoy
the propagation".
