It's a lot sunnier here than it is in Florida. But I have heard that New York's the sunniest state east of the MS River. It's 90 degrees here (at my house) now, a little sun peaking through some clouds.
Actually, not the case. I grew up in NY, lived in New England for 15 years, and did a lot of flying as a private pilot while in New England. Flying in the winter was the best, because of the arctic high pressure systems that would bring numbing cold, but also deep blue skies and virtually unlimited visibility.
I used to go out to Seattle quite a bit in the winter, and while the warmer temps were nice, the drizzly, grey days were a real bummer. In the northeast during the winter, except when it snows, you generally have nice blue skies and sunshine.

I can say with absolute certainty that the winters in WI are far grayer and gloomier than in northern New England. Maine actually has quite a bit of sun in the Winter.

Milwaukee is in the upper 30s and upper 40s range for sunshine %.
Buffalo isn't really the "northeast" in a true sense. It's in the generally northeast part of the US, but is at the extreme western part of NYS, away from the coast and right near western PA and Ohio. It's 400 miles from NYC.

The difference between Buffalo and Seattle is that while it is 45 degrees in Seattle in January it is 5 degrees in Buffalo.
