    How about posting the link to the city’s  snow plow activity? Might come in handy tonight and tomorrow!  https://seattlecitygis.maps.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=78d66825a3e6478c9fc6bdd3116038c8

      Later we definitely will. We’ve been checking since last night and it showed zero activity.

        Saw SDOT plow going east on Alki Ave about an hour ago. Street had nothing on it and looked clear.

          They must be out now. We just drove 35th and there’s sand.

    I spy with your web cam eye, people driving with snow on their back windows and rooftops! Really, people? You can’t afford the extra minute to brush/scrape off the snow?

    Is garbage being picked up? I haven’t heard a single garbage truck in my neighborhood.

    • Michell December 19, 2022 (10:52 am)

      We had garbage pick up at regular time this morning. I’m on the hill above Luna Park.

      Saw a truck in South Alki. Hoping they pick up my full can of trash!

Sorry, comment time is over.
