Is there anyone on here from the Vancouver area (or thereabouts) ?
Or, more specifically, Seattle.
I'd just like your thoughts on the weather out there.
I have visited BC off and on over the years, and lived there for a few months back in the 90's.
My memories of my time there are most favorable, and I really don't recall it being that rainy/suicide inducing, but hey, that optimism might have been simply due to my love for the mountains and the trees.
Anyway, what's it like for the long term over there?
I want an RS4.

I don't live there, but have visited, and know people that have.
It's like everywhere else, has it's good days/weeks/months/years and bad ones. It's basically the opposite of Houston or LA. Where sunshine is 'the norm' with occasional bouts of rain, Vancouver/Portland/Seattle is 'usually' rain, with periods of sun.
Personally? I would LOVE to live in Vancouver, and probably wouldn't mind Seattle.

My wife and I were in Seatle a year ago for a short trip. It was a nice town, the ball park and football fields are awesome. I really liked seeing the mountains in the background.
Hey now!
