moving to gettysburg from cleveland (foreclosure, how much, live)

[andyzemco]

Hey all,
im thinking of moving to gettysburg area from Cleveland. Cleveland, being right on the lake, has too much snowfall and too much cloud cover. I dont mind winters, cold temps, winter driving, but man that snowfall is constantly dumping snow and the long gray days can go on for weeks at a time.

What is the clound cover like in the dead of winter in gettysburg?
how much snowfall does gettysburg get on average?
what time of day did the sun go up/down today?
whats the weather like today?

thank you very much!!!!

I lived on the east side of Cleveland for 10 years and know exactly what you're talking about! We now live about 25 minutes outside Gettysburg and the winters here are much better...this year we had only one snowfall that was enough to use our snowblower, and 2 times where the shovel was enough. The sun shines more often than in Cleveland, too. Some days were just as gray, but I think there were fewer than in Cleveland; plus, with less snowfall, you can see the grass, even though it is brown.
Today is sunny with a high of 63F...so we'll be outside all day! I think the sunrise/sunset may be slightly shorter than Cleveland since we are a bit further east...not sure on that one.

Two things are for sure....

the murder rate and foreclosure rate are significantly lower than Cleveland.
