Standout factor: Jacksonville is in the 95th percentile for divorces.

I don't understand.  Gay marriage is illegal in FL, so how is it that all of these straight marriages are being destroyed?  I thought we were protecting the sanctity of marriage by not letting gays get hitched, yet the heteros are getting divorced left and right in J-ville.

Maybe the gays getting married in other states project their marriage-destroying powers in our direction.  The fiends.

Wow...pretty crazy that three FL cities and Vegas are in the top 5 when one of the factors used to rank was the annual number of cloudy days.

thank you Fine for alert review

Alas,this 'study' lacking regards parameters.

" Cloudy Days"...?

interior Midwest    *** Scud *** or Glorious Southeast sky;Cumulonimbus  Ultraviolet 'Extreme 11 range'.....??

"Colorful " Colorado has promoted cloudless sky.....after all,so dang arid that many newcomers are in for a reality check.
( 'clouds' = moisture,water......consider the "Square Corner States".....states with boundary that can not be defined by water body...think about it!....)

( Overall negative Florida ratings brilliant and helpful for those of us Floridians basking in the Sunshine State)

Could this 'study' be as as bifurcated as those that proclaim RAP is the Best Place To Live??
