6:02 AM: Good morning! It’s Tuesday, December 27th.
LOW BRIDGE STILL CLOSED
We’re hoping for an update today on what’s wrong and why it’s taking so long to fix.
It’s been out of service since Friday.
WEATHER
More wind is on the way, according to the National Weather Service, with the latest alert – a High Wind Warning – and forecast viewable here; the strongest wind is expected in the pm. Rain continues, too; by late last night we were already getting reports of pooling water on local streets. Another water note: Today’s “king tide” – 12.9 feet – is at 8:40 am.
TODAY’S TRANSIT STATUS
–Metro is back to a regular schedule today but still down buses for repairs – 12 of the 126 had been fixed by the end of last week – keep watching notification channels such as @kcmetroalerts for trip cancellations and route suspensions.
-The West Seattle Water Taxi is on its regular schedule but with a warning that the forecast high winds could affect service.
-WSF’s Triangle Route remains on its two-boat schedule- check here for alerts/updates.
