Even in those areas you're getting about 45% or better in most parts, though Pittsburgh's 45% claimed is probably nearer 42-43%.

Yes, but the winter months average below 30%:

Sunshine- Average Percent (%) Possible

Lowest is 25% for December in Syracuse. But yea, worldwide, the Great Lakes region isn't that cloudy; I assume much of northwestern Europe is cloudier.
