I guess maybe I should have directed this to the NW USA...

Since I live in the SE USA, we have cyclical rain when we can get it. In Atlanta, our rainy season is from Octoberish to February with an occasional panic attack of solid precipitation. In late summer/autumn toss in a hurricane here and there - we actually have one coming in now (in the vicinity).

From late February to May, we have to pay attention for tornadic weather systems.

as I said, my perception from watching TV (never been to GB, definitely on my bucket list), it just seemed to rain there all the time. Hence my question. From the picture posted, it looks like no one cares about gutters Smile | :)

There seems to be a growing movement that if your property allows it - chunk the gutters and use these: Since I live in the SE USA, we have cyclical rain when we can get it.

There is also the idea of covering your gutters, but those "patented systems" are so hideously expensive I'd die before I got my money back.
