Manchester, UK. It's like this around 300 days a year.

Very pretty, 300 days is an exaggeration though

Better this than possibly constant drought and fires.

explains the smiths

After 8 months in Manchester I came back to Denmark and something was off, seemed off.

The roads were dry, hadn't seen that in a while 🙂

Loved the city and the weather, in general, though.

Copenhagen averages 170 days of rain per year. Manchester 152. Manchester rains harder though, at 86cm/year vs Copenhagen's 61.
- I don't live in Copenhagen 🙂 it was my experience regardless of statistics, though. Could just be a month of rain in Manchester before we went home, but who knows. It always just seemed like it had just drizzled a bit.
  Iirc this is why Manchester became an industrial city in the first place. It is easier to work with wool when it's humid, and so the spinneries were out in Oldham which is very humid and also in a good spot for collecting the wool from Lancashire. The weaveries were then placed a short distance from there in Manchester, and the cloth was shipped out from Liverpool.

Love that kind of weather

As a Californian who lived in Oregon for a brief couple of years, I offer my condolences.

That said, it was 106F today, so... Yeah. That rain looks quite pleasant at the moment.

Likely to be 120F without AC in parts of southern europe, if not this summer the next.
Way things are going, Manchester is looking good.
- Where I live, it's regualrily over 30, feels hotter due to the high humidy, and we get frequent thunderstorms....which only make it more humid. I don't want to make it a contest, but it's like breathing through a wet cloth some days. and no, I'm not some place south like Florida, we also get freezing cold, snowy winters here too (nobody lives in Canada for the weather).
