Thankfully, the Worldcon won't be in December, January, or February.

 What part of "it always rains in Seattle" don't you understand?
 But I agree that that only instance of freezing rain that I
experienced was on a 12/23.
 

Small tornadoes are rare, but not unknown. Maybe once a decade or two.

I've been to Seattle twice, both times it was beautifully sunny.
The second time was while I was taking training at Microsoft, in
Redmond. At the start of the course, everyone was asked to stand
up and introduce themselves. I did, and added 'Clearly, I've been
lied to about the climate here. Everytime I've been here the weather
has be great."
There was silence, then someone yelled "Don't let that man leave!".
