Doesn't the Olympic Rainforest get something like 240 inches annually?
Amazing!

The Olympic mountains are what creates the convergence zone. The Pacific
weather moves in and hits the Olympics giving the amazing rainfall there.
The mountains also force weather north and south heading east, and this
weather "converges", usually somewhere from north Seattle to Everett to
give that "enhanced" rainfall.
