Why the 'ell are all your refineries in a storm path?

Hmm, let me guess ... because that is where the oil is and where the
tankers dock?
I suppose they could put them on the west coast where the earth quakes
are or on the east coast where the snow flakes will bitch about them.
The fact is environmental concerns have prevented virtually any new
refinery construction in the US for the last 30 years and a number
have been closed. People bitch about the evils of oil and the
production, fighting any new development and then they bitch when the
price goes up.
