    From Wiki

    Despite being on the margin of the rain shadow of the Olympic Mountains, the city has a reputation for frequent rain.[80] This reputation derives from the frequency of precipitation in the city (150 days of precipitation > 0.01 in/0.3 mm) as well as the fact that it is cloudy an average of 201 days per year, and partly cloudy an average of 93 days per year.[77] At 37.1 inches (942 mm),[81] the city receives less precipitation than New York, Atlanta, Houston, and most cities of the Eastern Seaboard of the United States. Seattle was also not listed in a study that revealed the 10 rainiest cities in the continental United States.[82] Most of the precipitation falls as drizzle or light rain.


    So if you like being pasty white (cloudy 201 days per year?), this is the place for you.

    When I was in Seattle it was beautiful the whole time. My friends that live there assure me that was just a fluke and they do in fact have a lot of cloudy drizzly days. I believe the lack of sun is what keeps the population down. If it weren't for that, I'd move there in a heartbeat.
