Answer:

Because Spokane is located in the west of the state of Washington, near the border with Idaho, at an elevation of 1,843 ft, while Seattle is a coastal city.

This makes the climate of Spokane to be classified as a dry summer continental climate, while the climate of Seattle is oceanic.

Continental climates are those located away from the coasts, and tend to be more extreme: hotter summers and colder winters. The climates of coastal areas like oceanic or mediterranean climates, tend to be milder, because of the moderating effect of the ocean.
