5:59 AM: Good morning! It’s Wednesday, March 11, 2026, third day of what has changed to a 5-day repair closure for the northbound 1st Avenue South Bridge. The South Park Bridge is the major detour for those coming from the south:
The West Seattle low bridge is an alternative too.
MORE TRAFFIC CAMS: All functioning traffic cams citywide are here (including links to live video for most); for a quick scan of West Seattle and vicinity-relevant cameras, see this WSB page..
WEATHER – WITH WIND ALERT – AND SUNRISE/SUNSET
That rain/snow mix never did materialize. Now, we have a Wind Advisory alert for this afternoon and evening – SW winds 25 to 30 mph, possibly gusting to 50 mph. Otherwise, the forecast says it’ll be rainy,- high in the low 50s. Sunrise is at 7:30 am; sunset at 7:09 pm. Nine days until spring!
