Horrible. I can't rate this higher than an F. That's enough cold rain to drive me insane. The average rain is over 1" per day, that's incredible! Good find but I don't want to live there ever.

Oof indeed...I don't even know how to rate this! Looks fictional, even.

Too much rain even for me, and also temps are garbage with extremely little snow given the amount of rain.

Forks, WA on the west side of the Olympic Mountains and 85 miles south of Henderson Lake received 162 inches of rain that year; wettest year on record. Still less than half of Henderson Lake, wonder why Henderson Lake is so much wetter with a similar geography?
Interesting how much more remote Henderson Lake (and most of the west coast of Vancouver Island) is than the coastal Olympic Peninsula. Looks like Henderson Lake is only accessible by ferry that runs every other day

I was expecting at least a decent amount of snow with all that precip but it only managed a meager 16". Also temps are quite bad. F. |

E for me since it's non dangerous or severe, just irritating. Easily this over subarctic stuff.

The succeeding years were better for snow, averaging ~61" but it's only a few years of data . I'll post those in the "climate boxes from previous years" thread. |

Henderson Lake is at or close to sea level; more of a fjord into the Pacific Ocean. Since it faces the Pacific with mountains to the east, hard for any coastal storms to dump snow coming off mild ocean water. map of the area. goo.gl/maps/TFiJvYEuECD4uUiB8the mountains right next to the lake aren't tall at all; 600 m. A bit further inland 1200 m. Still, there are no low mountains right against the coast further coast; Olympics are taller but aren't right on the coast. Might be Henderson Lake, or a nearby one: goo.gl/maps/eTUFbDy3mutCvfyZA |

Depends on sunshine.
For now I'll give it an Oof+. Slightly worse than Bergen overall. Rain is way worse but temps, latitude, and maybe sunshine are better.
Low snowfall is a huge advantage.

I think it's say to say that sunshine is almost non-existent.

150 cm of snowfall might have saved an E- but no. Oof.

I think it's say to say that sunshine is almost non-existent. ucluelet on the coast nearby averages 1600 hours of sunshine. Usually places with more precipitation from mountains aren't much cloudier than lowlands, for example the Milford Sound gets a ton of rain but not much extra cloud. The mountains make rain more intense or have rain while nearby places just have cloud. I remember the western Olympic Penisula was sunny when the drier east was sunny and rainy when the east was cloudy. So 1400-1500 hours of sun is plausible. Still bad, but no worse than a lot of northwest Europe. |

F-. One of the worst, if not the worst, years Iβve seen. If wish there was a Z option!

F. The temperatures are actually quite comfortable for me (though far from ideal) but the precipitation makes this absolutely unliveable.

F- My worst nightmare. I would rate a climate like Muscat or Medina higher than this year.
