Currently, I have an Arcteryx pullover rain jacket that I bought almost 3 years ago, but it seems like the waterproofing is beginning to fail (water soaks into the fabric instead of beading away like it used to). I'm in the market for a new one, and the toss-up is between this jacket and the MH Typhoon. I noticed, however, that neither are made with Gore-Tex fabric, which, to me, seems like a must for torrential rain in Washington, where I will soon be moving. Can this or the Typhoon hold up to mucho raino?

Instead of Gore-Tex it uses Patagonia's H2No waterproof breathable barrier. Many companies are now using products other than Gore-Tex that are the same quality or better. Patagonia makes quality stuff so I'm sure it's good.
