No it doesn't rain all the time in Kentucky. It has truly four distinct seasons that are usually fairly mild seasons. We do get the occasional big storm in the winter every few years that could dump 10 to 18 inches of snow, but normally all winter the biggest accumulations are only 1-2 inches and that melts off within a few days. The average temps in winter are about 28 degrees I believe and the average summers are about low 80's. I did say average, so of course it gets colder sometimes and hotter sometimes as well. You will not be forced into enduring terrible cold or blazing heat very rarely in this state. We have air-conditioners mostly. Not swamp coolers.
Southern KY may be a bit warmer in summer and Northern KY may be a bit colder in winter..
Hope any of this helps.. and since this is an old thread... hope you didn't give up on our state!

I have to say the humidity in Louisville cannot be anything compared to Charleston, SC! When I first moved here (Charleston) 3 years ago, I thought I was going to die! I am really looking forward to our move to Louisville! I guess it is all relative, right?
My husband and I are moving to Bowling Green in 2009. I flew out to BG from Northern CA in the latter part of April and first part of May 2007. I don't know if this is a low period for Humidity or a high period of Humidity, however, the temperature was in the upper 80's and it was at a time when several storms were crossing over the state. I was not uncomfortable with the humidity, in fact, I found it very bearable. Of course the true test would be to come back during the July/August time frame and see if it is any different. I have lived all over the world and in some pretty humid climates, and I am not a real fan of a lot of humidity. The Philippines, Thailand, Washington D.C., Montgomery AL, Corpus Christi and Houston, TX, are all very humid locations and I felt the worse in Houston, TX and Thailand where the minute you get out of shower, you feel the need to get back in again. I did not find that the case in Bowling Green. It was warm, but I was not dripping every time I went outside to do activities while I was there. One thing that did stand out was the very warm reception I received everywhere I went and the feeling that I was very accepted everywhere. Such friendly and warm people and a real pleasure to be around since that is so rarely seen in California. I am so looking forward to this move.
