Rate the climate: Stereotypical Seattle (hot, average, nights, season)

C. Too cloudy and rainy. Otherwise good (although I would prefer also colder winters and a bit warmer summers).

An oceanic hellhole. No heat, no cold, no sun.... Of course in reality Seattle has much sunnier summers than most other oceanic regions.

To me it's a straight A+, I love rainy, cloudy days and I hate excessive heat, so both winters and summers work perfectly for me.

I like it more than the real Seattle, for the colder winters and more snow. Still only gets a D+ or C- though.

Probably still very few thunderstorms in summer in the stereotypical Seattle.

Luckily that condition in the picture happens only on the worst winter days, but all the time in the stereotypical version.

I don't see what's wrong with that picture, there's a certain stark beauty to that that a sunny day doesn't have. I would like those conditions in early fall (late September until mid October or so).

Funnily enough an older lady struck up a conversion about the weather when I was at Cannon Beach yesterday. I know it's not Seattle but weather is similar enough (she was talking about Portland where she lived). She was saying how the weather used to be a lot different. From Halloween to July 4th nothing but grey skies and rain.

That sounds like typical anecdotal evidence rubbish.
