Default pressure wash house during rainy season?

I noticed that my house has a little mildew under the eaves of the
roof. I live in Oregon and I'm concerned about pressure washing the
house during the rainy season. The house is going to be wet regardless
of what I do, but it seems that pressure washing will force more water
into the wood. Does anyone know if this is correct and if it would be
better to wait until next summer?

Thanks

Wait until summer so that it can dry out if water gets where it should
not be.

Yep, I decided to wait. I'll try a bleach/water mixture to treat the
bad spots for now.

Thanks
