I gotta make that thread on PDX's sun data it seems. You'd be surprised how much variability there is, we've actually had some pretty sunny winters before (the mid-1980s come to mind).
But yeah, stretches like Dec-Jan 2018-19 or this last December really make me think I wouldn't mind an LA or Phoenix winter, lol. I like winter cold and snow and love going on trips to it, but if winter is gonna be this awful, I'd kinda rather just go all the way and have 70 degrees and sunshine.
