Nope, you only have to step over the Oregon border into California into Del Norte and Humboldt Counties or travel west of you to the Coos Bay area or northwest to get plenty of rain year round. Certainly not 500 miles away.
You make your choices. This is pretty dry area around here. Most Ponderosa pine forest areas are but we still have plenty of water. We made sure before we bought. There is plenty of ground water where the folks graze cattle around here and they don't feed all summer. They rotate pastures and the ground water keeps it relatively green all year. It is still green now even after weeks of 100 plus temperatures!
We did get thunderstorms in July but not enough rain to even damp down the dust. All we got from that summer storm were fires (now at 146,000 acres!) that still aren't contained.

I don't think Easterners realize how dry it is out West. I'm at a
fairly northern latitude and the dryness is still devastating. You have
to travel 500 miles further north or east to have much chance of a
summer shower.
