When I left for work this morning in Hickory Hills, it was raining. 10 minutes West on I-10, the sun started shining. If you were to ever want to move away from the beautiful Ms. Gulf Coast, here are a few places that have great weather on a regular basis according to the Washington Post . (also included, those with the worst daily weather....)
The rankings were based on the number of pleasant days per year, “including at least partial sun, temperate thermometer readings, gentle breezes, no rain or snow, and not much humidity.”
Not surprisingly, the nicest weather in the whole country is in California. Here are the cities with the most and least nice days per year:
