How will Washington's Pacific Northwest climate compare to Connecticut's East Coast weather?

Is Washington worth leaving Connecticut's established East Coast lifestyle for?
If you love tech opportunities, outdoor activities, and don't mind rain, Washington's amazing! You'll trade Connecticut's East Coast sophistication for Pacific Northwest culture and mountain adventures, but potentially face similar high living costs in Seattle.

Plan 8-10 weeks total, with professional movers taking 7-9 business days for this major cross-country transport. Mountain passes can be challenging, so spring through fall timing is much more reliable than winter moves.
