  1. We did! We got a LOT more than forecast, too. I think the last Wunderground forecast I saw was 4.3mm and we got 4.3 times that lol

  2. 80th Ave NE between Bothell Way and NE 185th in Kenmore - a bike route currently being improved with new construction for both sidewalks, improved bike lanes, and traffic calming - is going to be CLOSED to all but local traffic for a month starting August 24th.

    I will drop a new maps release on Friday to reflect this, as it is a durable actual closure to all but local traffic only.

    -----

    When: August 24 - September 24
    Where: 80th Avenue NE between NE 185th Street and SR522. Detour route: on NE 192nd to SR522 via 73rd Avenue NE.
    Why: To safely complete the ongoing roadway construction for the 80th Avenue NE Pedestrian and Bicycle Project.

  3. North Shore Sunset

    A warm North Shore sunset washes the sky in soft gold as gentle waves roll toward Haleiwa Alii Beach. The sun hovers low, casting shimmering reflections across the water and silhouetting the distant shoreline. The scene feels calm and unhurried, capturing the quiet beauty that settles over Oahu at day’s end.

  4. Duluth - Canal Park On Ricoh GRIIIx

    Were heading up north last weekend and stopped in Duluth to get out of the car and walk around the canal/harbor for a little bit. We got there just in time to see the largest ship on the Great Lakes pass under the lift bridge into the harbor. I didn't get any photos of the ship, unfortunately; I was parking the car and dropped my wife and kiddo off so they could cat…

  5. RE: mastodon.murkworks.net/@moira/

    I meant this, by the way. I know the odds are low, but does anyone local want a 13-year-old 7-speed Schwinn Gateway?

    It's not a good bike but it has a comfortableness to it. Terrible for hills, but not so bad on the flats. You'd want new tubes and tyres, these are ancient even if they do still hold air and have tread.

    No warranty, obviously, get any new-to-you bike checked out before riding, etc etc etc. It's free and entirely at your own risk.

  6. A new #Severe #Thunderstorm #Warning is in effect for a portion of the western half of the #SouthShore region of the #Northland.

    This is a continuation of the severe storm that impacted the southern half of the #NorthShore.

    Strong #winds and large #hail are the greatest threats from it.

    #wxtooter #wx #weather #WIwx

  7. SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNING:

    A #Severe #Thunderstorm #Warning is in effect for the far southern portion of the #NorthShore region of the #Northland.

    This thunderstorm is becoming more of a #wind threat as well as a possible #hail threat.

    #wxtooter #weather #wx #MNwx

  8. SEVERE THUNDERSTORM WARNING:

    The latest #Severe #Thunderstorm #Warning in the #Northland is for hail up to half-dollar size and wind gusts up to 50 mph.

    it is just exiting the #IronRange region, heading southeast towards the southern half of the #NorthShore.

  9. well that was loud

    anybody else hear an explosion in the north end just now?

    pow

    #seattle #northshore #pow

  10. 21

    time for regular numbers, not spelling them out after twenty

    22? faint but I think real.

    23, 24....

    ...and then quiet. It's quiet.

    _Too_ quiet.

    #wawx #northshore

  11. twenty was quite loud! maybe the second loudest all day. But smooth, lacking that "what just exploded or crashed into something else or crashed into something else _and_ exploded" that seventeen had.

    #wawx #northshore

  12. nineteen also quite loud but nothing on seventeen

    i've thrown an adjustment into my current solar battery experiment and am charging the backup batteries to 50% off mains power just in case

    (and didn't just start now, started around 10 when this ramped up)

    #wawx #northshore

  13. For a fraction of a second I literally thought something - something big - crashed into something else also big. Like an airplane. Or at least a really big truck. Or an airplane _into_ a really big truck. Which given Kenmore Air's all-seaplane airport is theoretically even possible.

    eighteen

    #wawx #northshore

  14. sixteen

    this is a lot of regenerations

    wow it is dark out lol xD

    SEVENTEEN FUCK THAT WAS LOUD HOLY CRAP

    #wawx #northshore

  15. fourteen

    still raining but slowly enough that my weather station can't tell, it says "rainy" which means "was raining recently, may again soon"

    the next .25mm (if we get there) will kick it back to "rain" at 1.3mm/hour and update the total, there's a little spoon inside under a funnel that fills up and tips

    fifteen goddamn

    eta: no! it tipped but i guess it needs two tips within a certain time period. it just says "rainy" still, but has updated the total.

    #wawx #northshore

  16. thirteen

    Seattle Times says it'll go through midday, which would help from a rain standpoint so if you're wrong please be lowballing, we need this rain

    ( seattletimes.com/seattle-news/ )

    (don't need the lightning tho')

    #wawx #northshore

  17. hello, ten. ltns

    eleven, twelve

    we're up to 2mm of rain and it's still falling - but barely

    #wawx #northshore

  18. eight was serious went on a while, sonorous and determined

    (if anyone's wondering why people are counting, this is more thunder than we usually get in a year. thunder used to make the news, even now it's unusual, and on-and-on like this even more so)

    nine also had a lot to say but with less stamina

    it did bring at least some rain back tho' so thank you nine good work

    #wawx #northshore #GodsAreBowling

  19. it's dark enough that the lights are on out back

    also

    two more thunders since that one

    gods are bowling

    #wawx #seattle #northshore #thunderstorm

  20. okay that's _definitely_ thunder at the north end of the lake

  22. Happy #Friday afternoon from the #Northland!

    The very #warm and #windy day forecasted is taking place.

    Unfortunately, this has led to some #wildfires across the region.

    The #radar has picked up the smoke from one along the #NorthShore between #TwoHarbors and #SilverBay.

    DO NOT BURN!

  28. RELEASE: Greater Northshore and MEGAMAP Bike Maps version 1.8 - 8 June 2025

    Additions and changes this release:

  29. 2 Line Eastside Bike Connector updated their map to include the new train stations opening today! If you’re seeing this on May 10th, you can go to the opening events!

    Naturally, we’ve picked up the new version, and both Greater Northshore Bike Connector and MEGAMAP 1.7 – 10 May 2025 – are now available to download.

    But this time, I have something to think about.

    They've gone and changed their map key on me, and I'm not entirely sure what to do about that.

  30. I had to do some stuff but it was less than 20 minutes from getting onto the platform to getting home and i do not think i could do that in a _car_. train go zoom.

    (that also includes like 5 miles biking but very fast biking)

  31. I do have a point with this and it's that filling in northshore / northwest King County lets you connect a LOT of maps together and that _kinda matters_.

    In social media terms, it's called the "network effect." But yes, it also applies to maps - and biking.

  32. #Snowfall will be highest along the #NorthShore, #TwinPorts, and #I-35 corridor regions. The shoreline will also have #blizzard conditions with the highest #winds.

    Northwest #Wisconsin and the #UpperPeninsula will see the #snow transition to #rain starting Monday afternoon.

    Some #icing is possible in spots.

  33. There's nothing else like a summer's evening twilight in the North. A picture of my favorite part of Minnesota, which I dub simply "North Shore".
