Seattle Local Pulse: Sunny Skies Ahead, Break-Ins Rising, Transit Updates
Published 6 hours ago
Description
Good morning, this is Seattle Local Pulse for Friday, April 24. We kick off with the weather shaking off our morning gloom as sunshine crashes the forecast, courtesy of dry northerly flow. Expect highs around 62 degrees today and tomorrow, perfect for outdoor plans, though partly cloudy skies and a cool 50 degrees now mean layering up for early activities. No big disruptions ahead.
Over in Wallingford, business owners are raising alarms about a barrage of break-ins on the rise, urging city help to keep things safe, while West Seattle's Highland Park Action Committee discussed crime trends and that steep Highland Park Way hill project at their gathering, with no intervention yet from Councilmember Rob Saka's office, so we share our feedback directly with SDOT.
City Hall updates include Sound Transit rolling out paid parking permits starting May 1 at Northgate and Shoreline North and South light rail stations, about 60 dollars monthly or 6 dollars daily to ease crowded garages, plus free carpool options expanding to eight spots. And King County Exec Girmay Zahilay just announced they're buying Skyway Park Bowl at 11819 Renton Avenue South, boosting our parks.
New sidewalks, trees, and pothole fixes from last year's Seattle Transportation Levy are making streets smoother around town. Traffic heads up, listeners, the Emerald City Ride closes westbound West Seattle Bridge and southbound Highway 99 early tomorrow morning, so plan alternate routes via the low bridge.
For fun, snag Seattle Mariners Ballpark Tours at T-Mobile Park today, or hit the first-ever Lake Union Piers and Pours bar crawl in South Lake Union tonight and tomorrow. Families, the free playspace at Church of the Nazarene on 42nd SW and SW Juneau reopens through noon. Catch Seattle Torrent versus Ottawa Charge at Climate Pledge Arena on the 29th.
In feel-good news, we're shredding documents for free in West Seattle this weekend after yesterday's event. Mariners fans, keep an eye on the diamond. This has been Seattle Local Pulse. Thanks for tuning in, listeners, subscribe for more. We'll see you tomorrow with fresh updates. This has been a Quiet Please production, for more check out quietplease.ai.
