Recommend good jacket for short, but very rainy winter commute

New to the forums ... a relatively new bike commuter. I have put on just under 300 miles in 2+ months so far. Commute is about 10 1/2 miles RT but some days I drive and other days the family picks me up in town if we have other things going.

Anyway, I live in Crescent City, CA - we get about 70" of rain a year. I have some good running tights that will work for the lower half just fine, but I want a recommendation for a good jacket. I sweat pretty easily (6'0" 240#), so I don't need anything that's overly thermal, just enough to keep the rain away, and we get some gulley-washers here.

It's OK if I get a little wet; I just don't want to be completely soaked through on an average rain.
