Snow Open Thread

With a couple of inches of dry, powdery snow in greater Seattle, our area has mostly avoided the icing disasters that are common to Seattle snow events. As of last night, only Routes 2 and 13 were rerouted in Seattle, avoiding Queen Anne Ave between Mercer and Galer. Late last night all South King County routes were on reroute, and North Seattle was spared completely. This morning the situation is reversed, with South King County in the clear and all North Seattle buses on reroute. Check the status of your route here.

Sound Transit Express routes are mostly operating normally, except in Snohomish County where routes 510/511 are operating only every other trip, Routes 522 and 535 are on reroute near UW-Bothell, and 542 is on reroute.

With rain in the forecast and temps projected in the mid-40s for Saturday, roads should clear in a day or two.
