∙ 9y agoYes, in the winter it does snow there.
Seattle averages 13 inches of snow annually. It actually snowed in two Seahawks games in Seattle. One of them was the Monday Night game against the Packers back in 2006 and the other one was the game against the Jets a year ago. Coincidentally, both were against Brett Favre:)
Snow does occur, but it is rare considering how low Seattle is in elevation. Puget Sound maintains a year round temperature of 50 degrees fahrenheit which acts as a heater in the winter and an A/C in the Summer. When it does snow and the snow sticks, it can shut down the whole city because the wet snow quickly turns to ice and the city has many hills.

∙ 14y agoBecause of its position on the coast, and behind a mountain range, Seattle's weather is very temperate, seldom dropping below 30 degrees, or above 85. In the summer, the days are generally clear and beautifully warm.
Autumn and winter (and spring, to a degree) tend to be overcast. It does rain, but not in the fashion of the east coast. Seattle rain tends to be more of a 'mist' which one can walk in for quite a ways before actually getting wet.

Where is the best place to live in Washington State not too hot or cold and not much snow?
Without question that would be in the Seattle area or in the lower elevations in the peninsula. Eastern WA gets very hot in the summer and can get quite cold in the winter with some snow, while western WA has its temperature moderated by the ocean. It does get some snow, but you can't avoid that in the state. Perhaps around Vancouver (across the river from Portland) would have the best climate for you.

How does near to water effect the climate?
Since the ocean absorbs energy from the sun, areas around an ocean are warmer than areas that are at the same latitude, but farther away from an ocean. Compare Seattle and Milwaukee. Seattle climate is warmer and doesn't get much snow in the winter. Milwaukee's climate gets below zero during winter and has snow from late November to March.
Snow load for 5 12 pitch roof Washington state?
Snow load depends on geographic location, not on roof pitch. Most of Washington falls into the 25 psf snow load. Snoqualmie, for example, has a 50 psf snow load since it receives a higher amount of snow fall than an area such as Seattle. Your county building department can answer this question for your specific location and/or has a snow load map where you can look it up yourself.
