Washington state typically receives snow in the Cascade Range and the eastern part of the state, particularly around the cities of Spokane and Pullman. These areas have colder temperatures and higher elevations, making them more prone to snowfall.
Weather comes from the west, or off the water, sending storm and rain clouds over Seattle. However, the Cascade Mountains fall between Seattle and Spokane, creating a rain shadow that effects the eastern half of the state. Therefore, most of the precipitation seen in Seattle is stopped by the Cascades before it can reach Spokane, creating a much more dry and arid region then seen in Seattle.
