Hello, The National Weather Service has issued a FLOOD WATCH for portions of northwest Washington, including all of King County, that will be in effect Wednesday afternoon through Friday afternoon. Flooding caused by excessive rainfall and heavy snow levels/snowmelt runoff may be possible, resulting in the flooding of rivers, creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations. Residents of flood-prone areas, or who transit these areas, should monitor forecasts, prepare for further Flood Warnings, and prepare to take action should flooding develop.

Thank you, Kevin Lowery

@ascentale @bikenite see also this sign outside

#BikeNite #seattle #kenmore #music

@ascentale @bikenite Out on errands last time, I stopped by the Kenmore post office to drop off some mail and noticed a sign pointing me towards this new store: "music non-stop / play * record * collect"

Sadly they were closed that day despite being a Wednesday, but they do warn you:

"days & hours of operation are organic
generally wed - sat 12 pm - 8 pm usually on sunday & also by appointment
sometimes we close earlier & sometimes we close later, so call or check the website first"

their window display includes not just the usual antiques but things like WIRE RECORDINGS so I'm like

I gotta see this place when it's open

The issue with the 61st Ave connection to Burke-Gilman that it's _very_ steep. Fixing it is on Kenmore's agenda, with funding tied to Sound Transit 3's RapidRide construction starting this year. (See https://www.kenmorewa.gov/our-city/projects/current-projects/sr-522-west-segment-b-improvements-57th-to-61st-avenues for a light overview.) But obviously, that doesn't help for this closure.

King County could suspend parking on 175th and use that for a walking detour, but there's no paved connection from that section of parking to 61st Ave NE, and setting up a temporary barriered area in the road would create a dangerous two-way single-traffic-lane next to a park popular with children.

So. Closure. Plan accordingly.

#Seattle #Northshore #LakeForestPark #Kenmore #KingCounty #biking #BurkeGilman #BurkeGilmanTrail #closure

Burke-Gilman is going to be closed for up to five days in Kenmore between 61st Ave NE and 65th Ave NE starting February 16th. It's probably hillside reinforcement.

People on bikes can detour onto 175th, which runs in parallel. It's low-traffic, but what traffic is there includes heavy industrial from the cement plant.

Since there are no sidewalks on 175th - at all - people on foot are advised to go uphill to Bothell Way. Despite some business driveways, that length of sidewalk is perfectly reasonable, and next to a bus lane rather than full traffic. However, the climb up from 61st is very steep and is _NOT_ ADA-compliant.

Burke-Gilman is going to be closed for up to five days in Kenmore between 61st Ave NE and 65th Ave NE starting February 16th. It's probably hillside reinforcement.

People on bikes can detour onto 175th, which runs in parallel. It's low-traffic, but what traffic is there includes heavy industrial from the cement plant.

Since there are no sidewalks on 175th - at all - people on foot are advised to go uphill to Bothell Way. Despite some business driveways, that length of sidewalk is perfectly reasonable, and next to a bus lane rather than full traffic. However, the climb up from 61st is very steep and is _NOT_ ADA-compliant.

Well that's pleasant. Not everybody follows through on these things, but if they do, I'm down to, uh... needing to start a new batch of emergency whistles and booklets already.

Nice. I like that.

If you're thinking about it don't let that stop you, I am 100% starting a new batch later today, once the printer's free again.

Hey NORTHSHORE! Greater Northshore, even. North King County. Close to Burke-Gilman is nice.

Need a 3D-printed emergency whistle or two?

Never know when they'll come in handy these days.
