The clouds don’t bother, but the amount of rain lately has been infuriating.

It's so annoying. I just want to ride my bike and not get soaked.

It's because of our close proximity to Lake Erie

And the hills trapping it in the area

Don't forget the tunnel monsters always farting and burping the remnants of their endless daily parade of victims

I remember reading it was the influence of the Great Lakes. The largest bodies of fresh water in the world influence weather for a big part of the midwest and northeast. Because of the lakes, we're pretty insulated from the coming water crisis in the drought belts of the south and west.

Yep, that's what I always heard. Lake Effect occasionally brings big snow storms, and the rest of the time... clahds.

Lake Erie + Appalachian mountains. The jet stream picks up a lot of moisture over the Great Lakes and dumps some of it when it rises over the Appalachian mountains. Pittsburgh is in the western foothills of the Appalachian mountains so we are on the windward side of the mountains. That’s why we have so many cloudy and wet days.

And so few days of huge lake effect snow. Those same mountains also repel hurricanes. I heart the mountains.

And the Cumberland Valley/Central PA area is in the rain shadow of the Appalachians and it can get really really dry there in the summers.

Yeah, born and raised in Pittsburgh now in Southern Ohio. We don't get near the cloudy days cause we aren't near any great lakes. Kinda flat here too

The clouds are necessary to repel hurricanes, tornadoes, earthquakes, droughts, forest fires and earthquakes. They also limited our UV damage.

Grew up here and moved to Wisconsin, too. Cold. Moved to Florida, too hot and humid, moved to Cape Town. No water. Came home happy for fertile ground and lots of days with neither heat or air conditioning. I'll take the clouds.

You can’t say that on this sub. People get mad and tell you to leave if you don’t like it.

I never said I didn’t like it….I actually quite enjoy it. Was just curious why.
