I grew up in the great Pacific Northwest, more specifically the Puget Sound area, Tacoma to be precise. It rains frequently there, and even when it’s not raining, it’s often overcast. I didn’t find that nearly as depressing as some other residents do, especially those raised in sunnier climates, but I certainly looked forward to days when it was only partly cloudy, when blue sky, mountains, and sea were at least occasionally visible.
