Thanks to Brian Presser of TouchTech Systems for sharing the photo of a short-lived rainbow Thursday night – so short-lived, it was NOT one of those rainbows photographed by seemingly everyone under the (also short-lived but now returned) sun. Let’s hope it’s an omen for a great Presidents Day weekend. Here are a few highlights for today/tonight, from the WSB West Seattle Event Calendar:

TRAFFIC ALERT REMINDER FOR TONIGHT (AND THE 3-DAY WEEKEND): One more time – 10 pm tonight through 5 am Tuesday, the I-5 Spokane Street Interchange Special Bridge Repair project will close the east end of the West Seattle Bridge – which means you’ll have to get off at 4th Avenue South, if not sooner. To get to I-5 or Beacon Hill, detours will be required – lots of maps on the state’s official info page.
