Which part of the pnw? Because in the mid Columbia you get 300+ days of sun and summer temperatures in the low 100s

Having lived in West Richland before (in the Tri-cities, on Red Mountain, scrub and all), I don't think thats really true. Well, it is definitely sunnier than Seattle, but nowhere near Phoenix. It is more normal than special.

Barring that, 80%+ of the people in the PNW live near the coast.

  • Tourism board proudly advertises the 300 days of sun on big bill boards at the airport in Pasco, and the hot summers are honestly worse than Phoenix, as there's humidity
