Perfectly fine with overcast in winter. Can fuck off in summer.

I'm fine with some overcast days, especially in winter - but a week or more in a row without seeing the sun is no bueno. It's especially bad in the summer if the clouds keep the temperatures stupidly low the whole day. 22/16 July days can suck it for sure.

I don't mind overcast conditions as long as they don't stick around for more than about a week. My overcast tolerance doesn't really change based on the season, except in autumn when I prefer sunny conditions.

I'm surprised that quite a few posters don't like it in summer - I thought winetr would be the season where people want to see sun more. I think clouds and precipitation just go with the vibe of winter - and my dream climate is wetter in winter than in summer anyway, so it makes sense that it would also be cloudier. |

Considering I live in Vanfuckver and I haven't offed myself yet, I'd say my tolerance is pretty high.

It's been about 5 days since the sun has made a proper appearance here as I write this, while I still prefer plentiful sunshine in summer, overcast that's with warm temps / high dewpoints / storms & tropical downpours isn't that offensive given that days tend to be long and is brighter.
Featureless cold stratocrapulus clag in winter on the other hand can suck my asshole. No tolerance for that shit. And I can't relate to those who consider that type of weather cozy.

I don't care a ton about sunshine hours except for in summer, which should be extremely sunny. So I have a decent tolerance for overcast in the cool season.

My highest overcast tolerance is in warm muggy conditions when I don't want the sun to make me feel even hotter. Lowest is in spring when I prefer cool crisp sunny days or mild sunny days.

High, preferable with <50 f temps. Above that it makes no difference, a dry day is a a dry day.

A week or so is fine, once you get below 30-40% sunshine in a month in winter (assuming a winter cold enough to snow occasionally) is when it gets too cloudy. In mild or warm temperatures, I haven't experienced too much overcast yet.
Unless if you're talking about overcast with 15c highs in Seattle in June.

High tolerance in summer as long as it's raining, otherwise would prefer mostly cloudy conditions where the sun can occasionally be seen.
Zero tolerance in winter.
Dry overcast is kill maself in any season.

I can tolerate it well for up to a week at a time easily, and actually prefer overcast to sunshine at certain temperature levels. Vastly more annoying than an overcast day is fake heat on a sunny day when the actual temperature is nothing to write home about.

Overcast with rain/storm: Decent tolerance, better with intense precipitation.
Dry overcast: zero tolerance

I am pretty tolerant! The soulless ginger + heat-hater combo kind of makes it necessary. My dream climate's summers are rather gloomy, very much on purpose.
As a side note, this is anecdotal rather than statistical, but it feels to me like, out of all of the places I've lived, Kansas City was the only place where overcast days without precipitation were relatively common in summer. I lived in Ohio near Lake Erie, but the lake-effect clouds were really only a big thing in winter, the summers were pretty sunny. I'm not sure if statistics will bear that out (or even if they're available), but that's how it subjectively felt to me.

I don't mind overcast at all in theory, the problem is that hot overcast rarely happens so I associate it with crummery days in summer.

I like warm overcast weather. Warm overcast weather with high dewpoints and/or preceded/followed by storms/tropical downpours is an entirely different kettle of fish from cold damp overcast dross. |

Not a fan of it. I get more angry when they forecast partly sunny conditions and yet we get full on overcast weather.
