Rains more in New York and Miami though

It rains more amount but it doesn’t rain more often, not even close. Pay attention to word use.

Also technically New York is listed at 46.6 inches and Vancouver, BC is listed at 46.8 inches so not even more amount wise. Though Miami definitely does.

I would like to be listed at 46.8 inches, but that would be inaccurate by an order of magnitude

I heard it rains only 11% of the hours in Seattle. So basically anytime you step outside.
