10:26 AM: I-5 southbound south of the West Seattle Bridge is still down two lanes because of emergency expansion-joint repairs, so if you’re headed to southbound I-5, catching it via Georgetown might be smarter, or wait a while to travel if you can. (Thanks to David for the tip.)
Earlier:
6:01 AM: Good morning. Welcome to Tuesday, June 27th, exactly one week until the Fourth of July!
