"TypicalCloudiness rules Western Oregon much of the year, while the Eastern half is typically sunnyOregon"

What's typical: low clouds all over Western Oregon, the Cascade Mountains rising high above the clouds into the clear; and Eastern and Central Oregon mostly sunny, except for scattered thunderstorms over the more mountainous areas, and an especially thick rain cloud hanging over the massive Wallowa Mountains in extreme NE Oregon.
