Yes, the Seattle Freeze is still an actual thing. So too is the arrival of rain, sleet, cloud cover, and some overall layer of damp chilliness. We can't help with would-be friends flaking out on you, but we can help with the second thing. These jackets from local brands and retailers not only keep in the warmth and ward off the wet, they also look pretty cool too. (Prefer a lighter layer? Try our list of trench coats.)
