From July to September it is sunny here...the rest of the year though nope lol. So is the UK like here...does it have the very dark low hanging cloud cover that the sun can’t penetrate through and it always looks like it is about to rain?
I should imagine Olympia is a lot Sunnier than the UK as it has 136 sunny days per year and it’s climate type is warm summer Mediterranean
I just looked up Cumbria 10 day forecast and looks fairly identical to the weather we get outside of summer. Says you get 80” yearly rain. It varies a lot here as there are lots of microclimates and such. But along the coast here we get over 100” where I am we get ~50. Last year we got 60
Yes Cumbria is hopeless outside of May-June. Normal sun hours are 100 or less per month otherwise. Down in the south it’s 200-250 hours in summer months

I just looked at some pics and it is quite pretty looking there imo.
80" of yearly precipitation? Which part of Cumbria are you looking at? Nenthead, Cumbria at 437 m AMSL is the closest you get to my forecast, as I live at around 454 m AMSL. Check the forecast for Nenthead instead.
I just typed Cumbria in general and that is what it said. Im mobile atm so if you want to post stats that would be appreciated though. No idea how accurate the info I looked at was

London and Paris looked like that in early September, but their seasons are not that defined as here. We are almost guaranteed sunny and dry summers and wet winters. Their weather is less predictable and more variable.
Oh for sure in summer. It is nothing but blue skies and sun mostly. The rest of the year is what I was referring to
Not sure about Olympia as there are no figures, but Seattle is sunny from March to September, depends what your definition of sunny is. Mine is 5 or more hours of sun on average per day.
screenshot the metoffice page showing selsey's 1997 hours, and settle the matter.
The best I can do is give you a screenshot of the July sun data. Selsey is highlighted in red as 8.47 hours per day and the info is spread out like a map of the UK. If you want I can give you the user name and password for the data, I'm sure the Met Office wouldn't mind
