I don't see how anyone can be happy living in a sunny sun shiney environment that never ceases day after day after day... especially in AZ when temps are above 100 for 5-6 months of the year.

Variety is the spice of life. There is plenty of it in Louisville. Also your forecast is wrong. There will be sun tomorrow and more on Friday through the weekend. It may not be pure blue sky, but who honestly wants that 24/7? It is so boring.

Well, I'm not debating it anymore. The lack of sunshine here is a problem. The lack of sunshine combined with problematic long-term employment prospects (my job is going away in 2013) and I'm moving back to the coast (VA or NC.)

Also the storms and tornadoes in April were exhausting to deal with. I stayed up all night two or three times having to go into work the next morning because of all the tornado warnings and storms. I think I'll take my chances with the hurricanes.

The shame is Louisville has a lot going for it but the weather here is a major drawback.

if you call day after day after day of low clouds and drizzle variety, i guess this place is spicey.i would prefer day after day after day of sunshine and warm temps. you do have a point, I'm sure that the same weather can become monotonous, sunny or cloudy, i just prefer the former to the latter.

as far as the forecast goes, it has changed three times today. and my best bet is we will see little to no sun for the next two days. more variety.

I lived in Porter County- Valparaiso (Michiana region) before and it was much cloudier compared to the Louisville metro. There, you were lucky to get a couple of sunny days in a row for the entire late Fall, Winter, and Spring combined.

As far as I'm concerned, we've had sunny days, cloudy days, rainy days, snowy days, stormy days.

That's variety.

Nothing but sun sun sun sun (one or two monsoon storms) sun sun sun sun (a week of winter rains) sun sun sun is not.

As far as the forecast goes, I'm a meteorologist. You can "wish" the forecast whatever way you want to, but the fact remains that there will be sun. Sorry it pains you to admit it.

I would say it's about half-and-half in Louisville. If you're judging by the current weather, this time of the year is considered Louisville's rainy season.
