No way. Rain is wet and you can't do anything in it, it gets gloomy after a day. Snow enables all kinds of activities and you can dress for it and clean up by brushing yourself off, it's so beautiful it takes weeks or months before it gets gloomy.
It is so rainy recently, wait no it's not. In fact, I've learned many places in Seattle don't have air conditioning, I can't wait until the rain starts up again.
Last October '16 was greatest total volume of rain to fall and November was darkest (lowest UV penetration). Fall/Winter are tough here especially if you're impacted by Seasonal Affected Disorder (SAD).
