living in Spokane- winter weather

I'm looking for some beta on the weather in Spokane in the winter. Just wondering how much it rains/snows and how often you see the sun. Also is it possible to climb in Deep Creek in the winter?

Thanks.

Climbing in Deep Creek in the winter would be unlikely since Spokane has cloud cover and temps in the 30s (plus or minus 20 degrees) from November until March.

In the winter, locals climb at China Bend (south facing sport climbing but still cool temps) or they go out to the middle of the state to either Vantage or Banks Lake - neither of which are are anywhere near as good as Deep Creek or China Bend.

The local gym, Wild Walls, is quite good, however.
