Today I Found Out that Seattle doesn’t really get that much rain compared to most U.S. cities. In fact, Seattle ranks 44th among major U.S. cities in average annual rainfall, getting approximately 38 inches annually. Cities that get more rainfall than Seattle include such as Houston Texas (48 inches), New Orleans (60 inches), Mobile AL (65 inches), Memphis (52 inches), Nashville (48 inches), and pretty much every major city on the eastern seaboard, such as New York (43 inches), Philadelphia (41 inches), Miami (58 inches), and Boston (44 inches).
So why does everyone not from Seattle think to go outside in Seattle without an umbrella is tantamount to committing suicide? Partially because of the entertainment industry producing things like Sleepless in Seattle, Frasier, and the like which portray it as such. (Along with always showing a Seattle skyline where somehow the space needle is by far the tallest thing in Seattle. Even though the Space Needle is actually about average in height compared to the 25 or so skyscrapers in Seattle; coming in at about 600 feet including the needle. With Seattle possessing quite a few skyscrapers around the same height and 6 skyscrapers taller than it; including the Columbia Center at 937 feet, which has more floors, 76, than any building in the U.S. west of the Mississippi River and is the 20th tallest building in the United States).
But the primary root of this rainy misconception really lies in that Seattle has a relatively high amount of days per year with precipitation (158), compared to such places as New York (119), Boston (127), and Nashville (119). All cities that get an average of about 16% more rain per year than Seattle, but also average between them about 36 less days a year of precipitation. So it rains a lot less in Seattle, but is spread out over about a month more of days than those cities. This is why almost no native Seattle-ite carries an umbrella generally. When it does rain, it tends to be a very light drizzle that isn’t bothersome. It almost never really “rains” as most people from places like Alabama, Boston, or the like think of rain. On top of that, it never really storms in Seattle either. Seattle gets an average of a mere seven days a year where thunder is heard, for instance.

Why do you hate Creed? As scary as it is, there is worse shit currently getting played on rock stations than those groups.TierbsHsotBoobs said:
Fuck Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, and Nickelback for killing rock.RoadDawg55 said:
Tool is good too. It's too bad 95% of the new rock bands suck. Not to mention, rock isn't considered cool anymore so kids won't grow up wanting to be rock stars. They would rather press buttons and fist pump.CuntWaffle said:All the grunge bands are solid but I can't listen for more than a few songs at a time. I would rather listen to Tool.

Grow the hell up and take a fucking community college stats course. Seattle has 1 month more of "rain" than most cities. And on those days that it does "rain", it sprinkles that lasts 10-30 minutes. So, while the frequency is a bit higher, it's not that big of a deal. Unless you're a pussy from Portland like you.
