このコンテンツについて
We’re waking up to a beautiful and classic summer day in Seattle. The National Weather Service promises perfect summer weather ahead, clear skies and highs reaching the low 80s today. If you’re making plans for a picnic at Gas Works Park or a stroll along Alki Beach, this is the weekend for it. The dry, sunny pattern continues through next week, and we could see our second round of ninety-degree temperatures this year by Wednesday. Stay hydrated and remember, fire danger remains elevated across the state, so let’s all do our part to prevent new wildfires.
Turning to breaking news, the big story from overnight is the sentencing in a high-speed chase that ended in tragedy last year. The driver, who pleaded guilty to killing a father of two during a pursuit with deputies, has received eight and a half years behind bars. This case has weighed heavily on the Lake City community, and many neighbors expressed relief that there’s a sense of closure for the family.
In public safety alerts, Seattle police responded quickly to a shooting at the Renton Transit Center late last night. One person is hospitalized, but officers acted fast, detaining suspects and recovering a firearm within a mile of the scene. Police are urging anyone with more information to contact them as the investigation continues.
From City Hall, there’s a lot of buzz around decisions that will impact our daily routines. Councilmembers are reviewing proposals for additional cooling shelters as our region faces more frequent stretches of high heat. Look out for updates, especially if you’re caring for older adults or vulnerable neighbors.
Now to the feel-good stories. In Everett, just north of the city, a 13-year-old is being hailed as a hero this week for saving a young boy from drowning in Silver Lake. Quick thinking and courage made a life-saving difference—one of those moments that reminds us of the spirit in our communities.
On the cultural front, West Seattle is alive this weekend with Summer Fest in the Junction. The big draw is the local favorite band THEM, back on the main stage after a two-year hiatus. Food trucks, craft vendors, and family activities stretch all down California Avenue, so it’s a great place to soak up the sun and support local businesses.
Looking ahead, Seafair is gearing up soon, and we’re just a couple weeks away from the Torchlight Run on July 26. Registration is still open, so if you’re feeling active, this is a chance to join thousands for a scenic 5K along the waterfront.
The job market in Seattle continues to show resilience. Local listings are steady, with about 6,000 openings in tech, healthcare, and hospitality. In real estate, median home prices remain high, hovering around 900,000 dollars, though agents note a slightly slower pace as we move deeper into summer.
On the sports beat, Seattle soccer fans are celebrating a big Sounders win last night at Lumen Field, where a late goal sealed a victory over LA. And local high school athletes are making waves at swim meets, with Garfield and Roosevelt swimmers qualifying for the statewide championships.
Tonight, clear skies and a gentle breeze will make for a pleasant evening. And if you’re hoping to catch a meteor shower, this weekend’s moonlight might spoil the view, but you can still wish on a star from your backyard.
