Thinking about moving to Seattle or SF Bay area from Washington, DC, any suggestion?

I and my girl have been thinking about living in Seattle for a while and now contemplating our choices between Seattle and Bay area but leaning towards Seattle, what do you think about this?

Pros:
- Great job opportunities in IT (for myself)
- I love outdoors -- hiking, biking and snowboarding (The legendary Mt Baker and Whistler)
- I don't really mind overcast sky, we like cool temperature.
- I love books and coffee.
- I am really into photography -- heard that Seatte area in summer is like heaven.
- Close to Vancouver and Portland -- another two great cities.

Cons:
- Traffic is bad (but I really wonder will it be worse than the beltway in DC area?)
- Housing is expensive (again, I don't think it beat DC area just yet)
- Mostly overcast sky (although I don't think it will bother me that much but I just don't know yet..)
- What about job in accounting field (for my girl)?

really like SF Bay area too, but way too pricey

Go Bay Area! It is most beautiful area in the north america.
