The secret is layers. A very basic fleece jacket will go a long way. If you want to spend a bit more, you can get the windblock, but it is not as comfy because it drapes differently. Then a good rain shell, sized large enough to go over the fleece adds real versatility. Finally, you are likely to need a much heavier parka, but that is a special use item that will get used in the worst conditions.
