Umbrellas are for people in cities without real weather. They only work for vertical rain. The pacific northwest often gets rain+wind, which defeats umbrellas. It is also a fashion thing. Ever since GorTex became cheap, everyone wants to look like they climb mountains every weekend. A bright gortex jacket is far more cool than a folding umbrella.

No. Everyone uses umbrellas in nyc and the surrounding metro area. You'll see a bunch of wind damaged umbrellas in garbage cans. A windy day in seattle is like a nice breeze compared to the wind in nyc, especially in winter. Yes, umbrellas are a nightmare when its windy. But people still use umbrellas because it's better to have your pants soaked than to have everything soaked.
