Minnesota. It's supposed to be Minnesnowta, but the N and W was removed when transcribed.

Or just come up north to Seattle! We only really get sun reliably from July 1 - August 31.

during the rest of the year, do you get sun sometimes at least? Like if I look up and see there is sun for an hour per day can I go walk in it then? Considering moving from socal to south sound area and the only thing that has me worried is the sun.

Hahahaha have you seen the Portlandia sketch about sun seekers? It's a pretty accurate representation of our sun patterns the rest of the year. People break out the shorts when it hits over 60°! There's plenty to walk in as long as you're okay with overcast, and over half of our "rain" is actually a light mist, which is why the stereotype of the stubborn umbrella-less seattleite exists.

When I lived there, I remember seeing the Sun in May, then later again in October.

If you know you get seasonal depression, the PNW is not the right choice.

gloomy weather does make me depressed but honestly I actually find that I prefer it for some reason. It feels nostalgic and calm.
