As the other poster said, rain paints are essential for them to work best. They also make pretty good wind protection. I used them a lot in South America this year, they are pretty durable if you don't walk around in them much.
+1. I have owned them for years and the work great. I use them with sandals and skinz when it's really wet and cold.
I grew up in WA and if you will be on the west side of the mountains, I wouldn't go without them because it can get really wet any time of the year. East of the Cascades will obviously be drier.
