<p>It is not super cloudy. Burlington is in the Champlain Valley which sees the warmest weaterh in the northern part of the state, due to its proximity to Lake Champlain. I live in vermont, grew up in Massachusetts and Vermont is fine. The only comment I would make about Burlington is it can be WINDY! UVM still astonishes me whenever I visit, it is a gorgeous campus, dorms are a bit institutional looking but it is really lovely! also has some SUPER programs, environmental studies and english are excellent (programs my daughter is interested in).</p>
