TRAFFIC, TRANSIT, WEATHER: Post-holiday-season Tuesday

6:00 AM: Good morning. It’s Tuesday, January 2nd – holiday season’s over, so it’s back to work and back to school.

WEATHER + SUNRISE/SUNSET TIMES

Rain returns, high in the upper 40s. Today’s sunrise will be at 7:57 am, and the sun will set at 4:29 pm.

TRANSIT UPDATES

Water Taxi today – Back to regular schedule. Check the real-time map if you’re wondering where the boat is.

Metro today – Back to regular schedule; check advisories here.

Washington State Ferries today – 2-boat service on the Triangle Route. Check alerts for changes, and use the real-time map to see where your ferry is.

SPOTLIGHT TRAFFIC CAMERAS

(The video options on SDOT’s camera map still don’t work; SDOT tells us they’re working on it, but no ETA for the fix.)

Delridge cameras: Besides the one below (Delridge/Orchard), cameras are also at Delridge/Genesee, Delridge/Juneau, Delridge/Henderson, and Delridge/Oregon.

High Bridge – the main camera:

High Bridge – the view from its southwest end (when SDOT points the 35th/Avalon/Fauntleroy camera that way):

Low Bridge:

1st Ave. S. Bridge – another route across the river:

Highway 99: – northbound side at Lander:

MORE TRAFFIC CAMS: See all working traffic cams citywide here, most with video options; West Seattle and vicinity-relevant cameras are on this WSB page.

BRIDGE INFO: The @SDOTBridges feed on X (ex-Twitter) shows whether the city’s movable bridges are opening for vessel traffic.

If you see a problem on the bridges/streets/paths/bay, please text or call us (when you can do that safely, and after you’ve reported to authorities if applicable). Thank you!

    I went through the Boren STEM school zone at about 8:20am today (before children were present, but Google tells me the camera is active at 8:15) and the school zone lights were not flashing, but the camera flash seemed to be capturing license plates. Does anyone know if the city will automatically throw out those tickets from today?
