 Good morning, this is Seattle Local Pulse for Thursday, September eleventh. We’re waking up to mostly sunny skies, with highs expected in the low seventies. Sunrise was at six forty-one this morning, and we’ll see the sun set at seven twenty-eight. Today’s weather feels just about perfect for outdoor plans, with only a slight breeze and no rain in the forecast. If you’re heading east or looking for ferries, the Washington State Ferries has all three boats running on the Triangle Route, including the Kittitas, Issaquah, and Sealth, so commutes on the water should go smoothly according to local transit updates.

On city streets, crews have moved construction on Sixteenth Avenue further north to the SW Holden area, so expect minor delays if you’re cruising through West Seattle or heading for the High Bridge. All Metro bus lines are running as planned. Cameras on main bridges and Delridge keep showing steady traffic, so your morning drive should be routine. If you spot any problems along the bridges or major intersections around Genesee, Juneau, or Thistle, city services ask that we call the local hotline after contacting authorities—community reporting helps keep things moving.

From City Hall, the big decision this week revolves around expanding affordable housing units near Rainier Avenue, with plans for two hundred new apartments approved just yesterday. This will mean more options for families and renters who’ve struggled with rising prices, so it’s a welcome sign for locals.

Looking at the job market, the tech sector continues to add new postings, with well over five hundred fresh openings this week, mostly in cloud computing and healthcare. Local business news is mixed; the historic Ballard Bookstore will close its doors after forty years, citing shifting retail habits. But there’s excitement around Pike Place as a new bakery specializing in gluten-free pastries just opened, drawing crowds for its soft launch.

Culture and music lovers, get ready for a lively weekend: The Seattle International Jazz Festival launches Friday night at Benaroya Hall and runs through Sunday, with headline acts, open-air performances at Westlake Park, and family-friendly workshops. Meanwhile, the Mariners are aiming to build momentum in their homestand with another six-forty game tonight against the Angels at T-Mobile Park—the buzz downtown is palpable. On the high school front, Garfield’s girls’ soccer squad clinched a critical win over Roosevelt last night, putting them at the top of the conference.

On the crime and safety watch, police responded late last night to a break-in on California Avenue near Admiral, apprehending a suspect believed responsible for a string of burglaries in the area. No injuries reported, and the local precinct is crediting quick citizen calls for the resolution. There are no major safety alerts for today, but authorities remind us to stay aware and report any suspicious activity.

Wrapping up with good news, volunteers from Green Lake organized a cleanup yesterday that collected over two tons of litter from park paths and waterfronts, helping wildlife and neighbors enjoy cleaner spaces. Their effort shows that positive change happens one step at a time.
