Also from the article:
In the Seattle metro area, the seasonally adjusted jobless rate jumped to 7.8 percent, from 6.7 percent in January and 4.1 percent in February 2008.
It appears Seattle is rather more average than exceptional in this regard, and the rest of the state is much worse off than the folks in the urban center.

Just posted a story to the blog on this very topic. Both the national and King County unemployment rates are currently rising at a ridiculous pace.
