It's true, being a tourist can be very misleading. Better, if possible, is to rent an apartment by the month and try living in a place. Some cities, famously Barcelona, is considered a top world travel destination but often cited as being pretty hard to live in.
Don't tell @scottalanmiller that. He wants to live in Barcelona. Says it's his favorite place in the world.

@Reid-Cooper You do have a point though. However, I wouldn't be moving without having a job already, so, packing up and moving again a few months later isn't going to happen.

A friend of a friend of mine worked for HP in Barcelona for a while. He loved it. The only issue was that they worked to American time-frames but partied to Spanish time-frames. So they were out until 1am every night having fun but then expected to start work at 8am. He burnt out after a while.
-
Oh he worked local time. When I'm in Europe I work US hours so I can spend the day in activities and work at night.

It literally rains 6 out of 7 days a week here during the 5-6 months of summer. Lots of lightning in Florida, though
-
Chance of thunderstorm means thunderstorm. It may only rain for 20 minutes, but its gonna rain

Yeah, I'd prefer drizzle all day. I don't like pop-up storms. It's just muggy after and bleh!

London for you then.

@ajstringham If Washington is the place you want to be, why not Redmond?

@ajstringham Redmond is where Microsoft is at or at least a major part of it.

I knew it was in Washington but I meant in reference to something I might have more understanding on...

See @Bill-Kindle , that was helpful.

You should watch Frasier, that will help you get to know the Seattle culture.

If you know Seattle enough to know any references you would know where Redmond is. It is inside the Seattle metro just to the east of downtown.
It's like Irving is to Dallas.

Those downs don't really get a lot of good storms though, right?
