 Good morning, this is Seattle Local Pulse for Thursday, October ninth, and we’re waking up to cool, cloudy skies and scattered showers. Temperatures are hovering in the low fifties and we can expect some drizzle almost all day, with things drying out a bit by evening. That’s classic October weather for us here in the Emerald City, and this damp start may impact your morning commute but shouldn’t completely wash out plans if you’re headed downtown or around Lake Union. Mariners fans headed to T-Mobile Park tonight should layer up for a chilly, damp game. The outlook for the next few days is more of the same—on and off showers and highs staying in the upper fifties.Turning to breaking news, Seattle saw a major move from City Hall yesterday. Mayor Bruce Harrell signed two executive orders aimed at pushing back against possible federal intervention in our city. One order sets up a citywide task force to retain local control if federalized National Guard troops are sent here. The other strengthens legal and community support for Seattle’s immigrant and refugee residents, including more funding for immigrant legal services and expanded know your rights programs. The mayor says these steps are necessary as we face what he calls unprecedented federal overreach. The Office of Immigrant and Refugee Affairs is also bringing back the Immigrant and Refugee Commission and is planning a series of resource fairs in the coming months that residents can look forward to.On the city’s political front, Seattle University was buzzing last night as the mayoral debate packed Pigott Auditorium. Mayor Harrell and challenger Katie Wilson faced off, with both sharing their visions for public safety, affordable housing, and support for small businesses. Expect more from both camps as the campaign season heats up.In more positive local news, congratulations to Seattle’s own Mary Brunkow. She just won the Nobel Prize for her groundbreaking research into how the immune system repairs itself. That’s putting our region’s scientific leadership front and center on the world stage.Now, in sports, after a blazing hot start to the postseason, the Mariners fell to the Tigers last night. The American League Division Series now returns to Seattle for a decisive Game Four at T-Mobile Park tonight. Fans are gathering early and hopes are high, an electric October energy is undeniable from SoDo to Capitol Hill. On the high school front, Garfield High’s girls soccer team clinched a spot in the city championships, continuing their undefeated streak this fall.Switching to the job market and real estate, local tech layoffs have steadied for now, but job postings in health care, construction, and logistics are up by about eight percent since September according to recruiters around South Lake Union. The real estate market remains tight, with median home prices in Seattle just below nine hundred thousand dollars and inventory levels still low, though a handful of new apartment projects are nearing completion in Ballard and Rainier Valley.A quick business note, several unpermitted food vendors in the Chinatown International District were shut down this week following inspections over health code violations, according to city officials. Meanwhile, Capitol Hill welcomes a new Vietnamese bakery this weekend.Looking ahead to community events, the One Seattle Community Resource Fair is happening this Saturday in Beacon Hill, offering direct access to legal help, housing info, and job leads. And don’t forget, the Seattle Music Fest takes over Fremont starting Friday—expect street closures and huge crowds for both local bands and big-name acts.Turning to our daily crime report, a teenage boy was arrested in Federal Way late last night in connection with the murder of an eighteen-year-old woman. The Seattle Police Department responded swiftly, and authorities say there is no ongoing danger to the community. SPD continues focused patrols around Pike Place and the University District following a string of car break-ins earlier this week.Before we wrap up, a quick feel-good story—a community group on Beacon Hill raised enough money to replace every single playground swing at Jefferson Park, with several local elementary kids there yesterday for the first test ride.
