    Be careful! With the extra moisture from the fog and below freezing temps any untreated street and sidewalk will be extra slick this morning. And if you park outside, PLEASE come out 5 minutes sooner to clear your windows before driving.

    On the offramp to Admiral from the West Seattle Bridge there appears to be a pickup truck stuck, just an FYI

    Nice to see police giving tickets for lane cutting this morning! (as the bridge ramps onto NB I-5)

      Love this. The last time I saw it was around 12 years ago. Hopefully it hasn’t been that long since it was enforced. I can’t believe how often I see people committing this violation.

Sorry, comment time is over.
