Move to Washington state instead of Denver?

Went to Vancouver years ago and absolutely loved it but I remember it being quite grey and rainy at times. Curious if the Seattle, Tacoma, Olympia area is going to be the same weather situation as Vancouver in terms of greyness and rain? Trying to decide if Washington will be more beautiful than Denver. Thx

No no no!

9/12 months it’s rain. The other 3 months are absolutely gorgeous and beautiful if you are a hiker. Best state ever for hiking.

Denver has hotter weather but also has some annoying snow. Overall, I’d choose Denver ( be aware of a state tax there tho).

If you are a hiker and rainy weather is fine by you and your comp is higher in Seattle then choose Seattle.

But man, from December to June you will be miserable.
