  • Crash Closes 509, Stabbing in White Center, Missing Man Found Safe - Seattle Local Pulse, September 14, 2025

    Crash Closes 509, Stabbing in White Center, Missing Man Found Safe - Seattle Local Pulse, September 14, 2025
    2025/09/14
    Good morning, this is Seattle Local Pulse for Sunday, September 14, 2025.

    We start our day with breaking news out of West Seattle. Overnight, a fatal crash shut down southbound Highway 509 at Cloverdale. State Troopers report that a 50-year-old man on a motorcycle was killed near the Myers Way exit after being struck by a hit-and-run driver in a white Toyota. The driver sped off, and investigators are asking for tips from anyone who may have witnessed the incident. The highway reopened at 4:30 this morning, but the investigation continues.

    Last night, just past 9, the King County Sheriff’s office responded to a stabbing and robbery near the bus stop at 15th and Roxbury on the north White Center side. The victim is recovering at Harborview, and deputies quickly detained a suspect who already had a felony warrant. Authorities ask anyone with information to come forward, and at this time there’s no broader risk to the community.

    On a hopeful note, Seattle Police confirm that Yukio, a missing and endangered man who was last seen near Meridian Avenue North and the Burke-Gilman Trail, was found safe and reunited with his family. Stories like these are a testament to the power of community vigilance.

    Our weather today is classic September Seattle, with patchy fog early in the morning and some showers tapering off as we head into the afternoon. Winds from the northwest will keep things breezy near the Sound, with temperatures sticking to the upper 60s. We can expect a few more showers tonight and a mostly cloudy Monday, so bring those layers if you’re heading outside.

    If you’re looking for something to do, today’s Fiestas Patrias Parade brought color and energy to South Park, with Grand Marshal Steven C. González leading the way and folkloric dancing groups celebrating Latin American heritage. Over in West Seattle, the Evergreen Ensemble performs at Holy Rosary Church this afternoon with a concert themed Where You Belong at 3 o’clock. Tonight, The Alley hosts local jazz from the Triangular Jazztet behind 4509 California Avenue.

    Alki Kayak Tours on Harbor Avenue wraps up its end-of-season boat and gear sale today, offering deals on used kayaks and paddleboards. For thrifty shoppers, Razzie’s Junk Removal celebrates one year at the old Tony’s Market on 35th and Barton with a name-your-price sale until 4 o’clock.

    At City Hall, the big update is Seattle Public Utilities ramping up for a two-year project to replace a culvert along 45th Avenue SW. If you live nearby, the city’s holding a public briefing soon to answer questions on how the work will affect your routine.

    Looking to the job market and real estate, Seattle’s unemployment rate is holding steady around four percent. Reports from realtors show median home prices across King County hovering close to $850,000, with competitive bidding still common on homes near Green Lake, West Seattle, and Columbia City.

    For local sports fans, the Seahawks face off against the Pittsburgh Steelers for NFL Week 2. All eyes are on our defense after last week’s close call. In high school sports, the Ballard Beavers girls soccer squad just notched back-to-back shutouts, and Garfield students took top honors in the All-State Music Showcase.

    For our feel-good moment, a West Seattle resident near 60th and Stevens credits neighbors for rallying to help him recover a lost dog after a frantic weekend search. It’s yet another reminder of the strong bonds in our Seattle neighborhoods.

    Before we go, a heads up that Seattle Fire and the Washington National Guard will be running rescue helicopter drills over South Park, White Center, and southeast West Seattle this Tuesday and Wednesday from ten to two. Don’t be alarmed if you spot low-flying aircraft—this is all part of keeping our emergency response teams sharp.

  • Seattle Crime Updates, Weather, Community Events, and More - Seattle Local Pulse, Sep 13

    Seattle Crime Updates, Weather, Community Events, and More - Seattle Local Pulse, Sep 13
    2025/09/13
    Good morning, this is Seattle Local Pulse for Saturday, September 13, 2025.

    We wake to some breaking news out of South Lake Union, where police made an arrest following a stabbing on Wednesday night near Belltown. Public safety remains our top priority, and Seattle police have assured our community the investigation is ongoing and there’s no current threat to the public. In other crime updates, city council’s recent vote has expanded CCTV and surveillance tools for the Real-Time Crime Center, aiming to improve neighborhood safety across Seattle. Remember, if you see something unusual downtown or near Seattle Center, the non-emergency line is always there.

    Switching gears to the weather, make the most of your Saturday. We’ll see mostly cloudy skies at first, then the sun will break through by afternoon and temps climb to a pleasant 75 degrees. Winds are calm early but pick up gently from the southwest later. Saturday night, clouds roll back in and there’s a 30 percent chance of rain after dark. Sunday is a different story: expect rain, likely starting mid-morning and lasting most of the day, with cooler temps around 67 degrees. If you’re heading to Volunteer Park for the Palestine Will Live Forever festival or a game at T-Mobile Park, pack a light jacket and maybe an umbrella just in case.

    Speaking of festivals, Capitol Hill’s Volunteer Park is buzzing all day today. Macklemore headlines the Palestine Will Live Forever benefit, joining community leaders, artists, and organizers from noon to 9 pm. Tickets are available at the gate, and proceeds help relief efforts in Palestine. The atmosphere is festive, focused on art, culture, and solidarity, so it's a great family outing.

    For our sports fans, it’s a packed weekend. The Seattle Mariners host evening games tonight and tomorrow afternoon at T-Mobile Park, with traffic and crowd control in place. Soccer lovers can catch the Sounders at Lumen Field at 5:30 p.m. Saturday and Seattle Reign on Sunday at the same stadium. High school football saw Chief Sealth International pick up back-to-back wins last night, continuing their impressive streak.

    Transit riders, be aware of bus reroutes in South Park for the Sea Mar Fiestas Patrias Parade and in Queen Anne for the On The Block event. Several routes like 60, 132, and RapidRide E Line are impacted today. Plus, the I-90 bridge eastbound lanes are closed through the weekend, so plan travel to Mercer Island accordingly. Seattle’s monorail and water taxi offer reliable alternate options for getting downtown or out to West Seattle with extra service all weekend.

    In city government, King County faces scrutiny as an audit uncovered possible grant fraud worth tens of millions in the Department of Community and Human Services. City Hall is also debating new plans for behavioral health crisis care on Broadway, with community members urging council to delay the project for further review.

    On the job front, openings in tech and healthcare continue to outpace other sectors, but closures like the popular Unicorn bar on Capitol Hill, shuttered for electrical repairs, remind us how quickly things change. Real estate sees steady movement with median home prices holding near eight hundred thousand dollars, though experts say sellers should expect longer times on the market.

    In education, Seattle students announced a walkout Monday at the district office, pushing back on the new two-lunch schedule. Meanwhile, Washington test scores show improvement in English, science, and math—something for our schools and parents to celebrate heading into fall.

    Our feel-good story today: seven neighbors in Tacoma are safe after a fire swept through two houses early yesterday. Quick work by firefighters and volunteers helped all residents escape unharmed, and donations for those displaced are pouring in from the local community.

  • Morning Fog, Stabbing Arrests, and a Boost in Affordable Housing for Seattle

    Morning Fog, Stabbing Arrests, and a Boost in Affordable Housing for Seattle
    2025/09/12
    Good morning, this is Seattle Local Pulse for Friday, September 12th, 2025.

    We wake up to morning fog and clouds blanketing our neighborhoods, especially around Lake Washington and Green Lake. By midday, we’ll get that September sunshine peeking through, with temperatures climbing to the low seventies. If you’re heading out for a walk or the Farmer’s Market, plan on comfortable, mild weather—though you might want a light jacket early on. Looking ahead, the pattern sticks around through Saturday, but expect some showers to roll in on Sunday, making it a good time to start putting away the outdoor gear.

    In breaking news, police made quick work downtown on Wednesday evening, arresting a suspect after a stabbing near South Lake Union. The victim is recovering after prompt attention from first responders on Westlake. Overnight, Seattle City Council approved two major ordinances expanding the police department’s use of surveillance cameras citywide. Leaders say this move will help curb property crimes and improve real-time response right in our own busy streets and parks.

    Public safety is on edge this week. Crime Stoppers just upped rewards after a string of burglaries targeted small businesses from Ballard to the Central District. One smoke shop owner on Rainier Avenue is cleaning up after thieves smashed his storefront for the second time in just three nights.

    From city hall, all eyes are on the future as councilmembers meet today for one last public hearing to help shape Seattle’s growth for the next 20 years. Residents from West Seattle to Capitol Hill can voice their opinions on proposed rezoning and the comprehensive city plan that will guide housing, parks, and transportation well into 2045.

    Turning to real estate, the big story for Seattle in September is the easing of mortgage rates. At six point two percent, rates are the lowest we’ve seen all year, giving hundreds of buyers permission to take the leap. We now have almost three months of inventory, meaning more choices even as sellers still hold most of the cards. The average sale price sits just under nine hundred ninety five thousand dollars, with most homes selling within thirty four days. Mayor Bruce Harrell also announced a three hundred forty nine million dollar proposal for affordable housing, aiming to help thousands more Seattleites find stability next year.

    Over in business, Waymo’s self-driving cars are making headlines. The very first test runs are happening this weekend on Capitol Hill and South Lake Union, so keep an eye out for those sleek, driverless vehicles navigating our busy intersections. Meanwhile, Microsoft shared that their Puget Sound employees will be the first in the country to test out new, flexible work schedules in January, a move likely to ripple through office life and job opportunities across the region.

    For our cultural calendar, tonight marks the start of the Bumbershoot Music Festival at Seattle Center, with acts ranging from indie folk to electronica taking the stage beneath the Space Needle. On Saturday, Seward Park hosts the annual Pacific Northwest Kite Festival, a great pick for families.

    School sports saw Roosevelt High’s soccer team clinch a nail-biting win last night, while Garfield’s debate squad took home first at the statewide invitational. In college sports, UW Huskies gear up for their Saturday night showdown at Husky Stadium, looking to stay undefeated.

    One feel-good story for this Friday: Seattle Parks just launched a new volunteer-led gardening program at Jefferson Park, drawing dozens of neighbors to spruce up paths and plant native wildflowers. We’re seeing real pride bloom right along Beacon Avenue.
