Washington, Oregon and many other states have the same or very similar chain placement.
WA chain placement
There is no way on trip to go without going over passes that require you to carry or install chains. WA & OR require chains to be installed on vehicles over 10,000 pounds when traction tires are required on autos.
Going south on I-5 is about the best choice. Yes, watching weather is necessary.
Are you going single or pulling trailer? If pulling trailer you need a set of chains for the farthest rear braking axle as well.
