Does it snow a lot in Seattle, Washington?

Winters in Seattle are cold, wet, and gray, but it usually doesn't have enormous piles of snow. People in Seattle are just habituated toward winter months of drizzling rain instead of snow with icy conditions. When it finally snows heavily, the city is often caught unprepared. Yet, if dropping by Seattle in winter, expect cool temperatures with wet weather; one shouldn't expect to be in a wonderland surrounded by heaps of snow.
