Is that why Chicago winters are perpetually gray?

  No idea. Michigan is more gray than Wisconsin because the air picks up moisture as it crosses lake Michigan. The western parts get a lot of lake effect snow too. Chicago I have no idea. How does it compare to Milwaukee?

  Chicago probably gets more lake effect cloud cover. You're right that it's always gray downtown in the winter. Further out where I live it's not perpetually gray, it's more of a mixed bag. Currently clear skies.
