I have lived in both Seattle and Portland never actually in Olympia. The winters are way too long the summers are over in a flash. I gave it a C because the winters are relatively mild and the two months or so of sunny nice weather are nearly perfect. Four or five dry months and it would not be a great place to live.
I moved here last year in June but last year was the worst in 122 years. The year before that was the 2nd worst iirc. I've heard with climate change it's just going to get worse as well. Olympia has the gloom/rain worse than Seattle as well.
