Is the weather THAT Dreary there? I lived in Oregon for a year and couldnt handle the 9 months of gray. Is Pittsburgh as bad as everyone is making it to be?

Yes,300 days a year of leaden gray skies,more than Seattle and even sunny days are iffy.I have been trying to relocate,since 1980,but tough to go it alone.I have a young son.Do not come here if you have SAD or enjoy being outdoors.Sorry. D.

Yes,it is extraordinary how gray the skies are 12 months a year.Oh,you will see a sunny day,occasionally,but then the dark clouds move in for days.Not much rain. I am psychiatrist with a teeming practice due to S.A.D.I travel extensively and must say that Pittsburgh and it's environs climate is similar to Ireland's sans the rain and culture. This area sees the sun 40 to 50 days per year and I have actually asked some of my patients to move to the sun and each one of them has reported to me that there depression is gone and they are finally happy.I wish them well. To your mental health,Dr.D.and associates.
