Good morning, this is your Bellingham Local Frequency for Saturday, December 20.

Around the county today, winter is doing its thing in a big way up in the mountains. The Mount Baker Highway remains closed east of Glacier after storm damage and a landslide, which means the Mt. Baker Ski Area’s much-anticipated opening day is on hold for now. Crews have cleared debris, but state transportation officials say incoming winter weather and road conditions make it unsafe to reopen, with no firm timeline yet for skiers and riders to get back on the slopes. Mount Baker is expected to pick up two to three feet of new snow in this storm, so when that road does reopen, it should be a deep start to the season.

If you are staying in town, Bellingham has plenty going on. The Bellingham Farmers Market wraps up its season at Depot Market Square from 10 to 2, a chance to grab local produce, last-minute holiday gifts, and see neighbors before the market takes its winter break. Down at Squalicum Harbor, the Bellingham Dockside Market is also open from 10 to 2, connecting you directly with local fishers selling the day’s catch.

Holiday spirit is strong in Fairhaven and beyond. Fairhaven Winterfest continues all day with lights, live music, and free horse-drawn carriage rides in the historic district this afternoon, plus photos with Santa and even a holiday dog parade later in the day. Families can also head to Bellewood Farms near Lynden for Christmas at Bellewood, running from 9 to 4 with orchard views, hot cider, and farm shopping.

If you are in a crafty mood, Garden Spot Nursery hosts a living ornament make-and-take this morning, and the Shop Small Holiday Makers Market fills the Bellingham Cruise Terminal with more than 50 local makers from noon to 6, offering everything from soaps and textiles to treats and jewelry. For art lovers, Meloy Gallery’s “Stomping Grounds” and the “Medley at Meloy” show are open downtown, and David Wight Glass Art is holding its annual holiday glass sculpting exhibition this afternoon.

On the culture front, Opus Performing Arts brings The Nutcracker to a Bellingham stage at 1 p.m., while the SPARK Museum’s high-voltage MegaZapper show lights up Bay Street at 2:30. Tonight, improv fans can catch “How the Blank Stole Blankmas” at The Upfront Theatre at 7:30, followed by the late-night “Punch Line” show at 9:30, blending comedy with a festive edge. Over in Ferndale, the Lighted Stroll Through Pioneer Village runs from 5 to 8, turning historic buildings into a glowing holiday walk-through.

Traffic-wise, if you are driving in the foothills or along smaller county roads, keep an eye out for standing water, debris, and lingering closures after recent storms. County crews are juggling road repairs and flood cleanup, and some volunteer efforts continue today to help neighbors muck out homes and clear damaged property in flood-affected areas.

Whether you are shopping local, lacing up skates, catching a show, or simply walking the waterfront, it is a full day to connect with the community.

This has been Bellingham Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
