Vancouver, WA Weather--O.k. RAIN!!!
Here in Vancouver, Washington (Clark County) we have a cliche about the weather here saying "We have only winter... and August" but that's really not true. From Wikipedia about our local weather: "Rainfall occurs frequently throughout the fall, winter, and spring, but ceases around the middle of June, with dry and warm weather lasting through September. Average annual precipitation is 42 inches. Heavy snowfalls are infrequent and snow often falls and doesn't stick, with major snowstorms only occurring every 2–4 years." And, even though some people think the weather here is dismal and gray in the winter, it's the rain and snow that make our landscapes, mountains and topography so gorgeously green! It's all this rain that gives us awesome green mountain trails to hike, rivers to kayak, windsurf and fish for steelhead and salmon! The rain also gives us lush gardens and great landscaping for our homes!
Taxes, Taxes, Taxes!
Our taxes are much lower than our relative Portland, Oregon across the Columbia River from us. The people of Oregon WISH they lived here. And very often they do move over here and commute to work. A trip that is usually only a 15-30 minutes drive since our traffic isn't too bad most days. Here's a snippet from the USA article June 22nd, 2010 that touts our lower taxes:
