    is it really snowing in West Seattle? I’m in North Admiral and my phone and a friend are saying “snow showers” right now but it’s dry outside.

    Great big flakes of wet snow coming down in Arbor Heights! Looks like it’s now sticking on anything, and definitely still more rain than snow.

    It’s snowing a little bit…. Roxhill

    What is going on with the Marginal & Holden cameras? They’re pointed so…. awkwardly.

    WS REZ.  The # to call for bad traffic cameras AND bad traffic lights is 206-684-7623. I called these cameras in just now. Note. They’ll give NO timeline as to when they’ll get fixed. Also note: If a traffic light is malfunctioning and causing a mess i’ve called 911. Probably not the best to do but city got there fast when called by SPD.

Sorry, comment time is over.
