For all of the rain that falls in Seattle, if was almost bone dry in Moses Lake, WA. Ellensburg and Wenatchee were fairly lush

Funny thing is that despite its reputation as being so rainy, Seattle is not really that rainy. Its just myth, legend. My city of Des Moines Iowa only gets about 6 inches less rainfall/water each year. But it happens on fewer days. Seattle has its reputation due to raining so often. It just does not rain very much on each rainy day. Kind of like riding 10 miles every day of the year. Or riding 36 centuries a year. Total mileage might be the same, but they are different types of bike riding.
