TRAFFIC, TRANSIT, WEATHER: Pre-midwinter-break Friday
6:00 AM: Good morning! It’s Friday, February 16, and next week is midwinter break for many local students, starting with Presidents Day on Monday.
WEATHER + SUNRISE/SUNSET TIMES
Sunshine and a high in the upper 40s are in today’s forecast. Then early Saturday, possibly a bit more snow. Today’s sunrise will be at 7:13 am, sunset at 5:33 pm.
TRANSIT NOTES
Metro today – Regular schedule; check advisories here. Monday will be on the regular weekday schedule.
Water Taxi today – Regular schedule. Check the real-time map if you need to see where the boat is. **Holiday note – Both Water Taxi routes are out of service on Monday for Presidents Day.
Washington State Ferries today – If you sail to Southworth, be aware that Kitsap County got more snow, and is dealing with the results. As for the ferries themselves, though, we have the usual 2 boats on the Triangle Route. Check WSF alerts for changes, and use the real-time map to see where your ferry is.
