TRAFFIC, TRANSIT, ROAD WORK, WEATHER: Friday notes + weekend alerts

6:02 AM: Good morning. It’s Friday, October 21st.

WEATHER

Rainy and chilly today, and the high temperature might not even hit 50.

ROAD WORK THIS WEEKEND

The rain could get in the way of some of this – but:
-California/Findlay work this weekend, as noted here
-Two-week closure of the outer southbound lane on West Marginal Way between 17th SW and the Duwamish Longhouse starts Sunday, to collect data for the protected-bike-lane project

TRANSIT INFO

Metro buses are on their regular schedules; watch @kcmetroalerts for trip cancellations/reroute alerts.

Still a 2-boat schedule for WSF’s Triangle Route (check here for alerts/updates).

The West Seattle Water Taxi is now on its fall/winter schedule (still daily, all dayparts, but no late Friday/Saturday runs).

SPOTLIGHT CAMERAS

    The high was possibly not even going to hit 50?! crazy but at least it’s not that cold yet

      That was the late-night version of the forecast – which is revised up to four times a day. The morning revision now says “in the 50s.”

Sorry, comment time is over.
