Ma family is from very sunny French Provence, and my brother married a girl from very not sunny Bretagne. The definition of "sunny" and "rainy" is.. up in the air. Examples: - is a sunny day a day during which you see the sun once for 4 mins, or during which you mostly see the sun, during which you don't see a cloud at all, during which you see some clouds with no chance of rain, .... - is a rainy day a day during which you see some heavy clouds and rain is so probable you should not plan a picnic, it may rain at any moment, it rains some, it never stops raining ... - can the same day be both rainy and cloudy ? -when we say "rainy", do we mean lots of mm of water, lots of days w/ rain, lots of days w/o sun. My previous county (in the Cévennes) had bth France's dryest spot, and its wettest. But not its sunniest nor its rainiest. - when I went to Bretagne, what shocked me was not so much the amount of rain, but the amount of clouds, and the speed of weather change, and the facts that very few days were pure rain or pure sun. In my Provence, I can usually tell 1 day in advance when it's gonna rain, sometimes 2 days, always on the same day. In Bretagne ? You can't know if it's gonna rain 2 hrs on. In the end, in Provence a rainy day is when we get one drop of rain. In Bretagne, a sunny day is when they get one ray of sun. We're right, and they're wrong ^^
