 Good morning, this is Seattle Local Pulse for Saturday, October twenty-fifth, twenty twenty-five. Here’s what we’re tracking across our city this weekend.Turning first to headlines, we’re mourning the loss of thirty-seven-year-old Zachary Raymond-Becker, found deceased from a gunshot wound along the Mountains to Sound Greenway Trail just south of Doctor Jose Rizal Park, near the I-90 and I-5 interchange. According to Seattle Police, this happened Monday around four thirty in the afternoon, just as the Mariners were playing game seven of the Championship Series and the Seahawks were set to take on the Texans downtown. Detectives are asking anyone who was in the area or may have seen anything to reach out anonymously, emphasizing their commitment to closure for the family. At the same time, SPD is investigating an armed robbery at a downtown apartment building and seeking leads on a fatal hit-and-run in Ballard from Wednesday night. Amid these serious incidents, there is some good public safety news: violent crime in downtown dropped thirty-six percent this summer compared to last year, a positive sign for local residents and businesses.On the weather front, we are in for a blustery autumn day. After a record-breaking inch of rain yesterday—the wettest day in nearly two years—we’re looking at continued showers, especially as a new system spins through from the coast. The National Weather Service has issued a Wind Advisory for Seattle, calling for southeast to southwest gusts up to 40 miles per hour from mid-morning through midnight. We expect scattered branches down, possible isolated power outages, and maybe some standing water on streets like Westlake or Rainier where drains are slow. The Fire Department reminds us to secure patio furniture and trash cans, especially near Alki or Green Lake. Boaters, take note: Puget Sound and Hood Canal are under a Gale Watch for tonight, with hazardous seas possible for small craft. Conditions should calm by early Sunday, but today, expect a high near fifty-five, clouds, and those gusty winds—so bundle up for outdoor plans.Now to what’s happening outside our homes. In West Seattle, the Alki trick-or-treat event runs from noon to two on Alki Avenue SW, with no street closures expected. Tomorrow brings the West Seattle Junction Harvest Festival, taking over California Avenue south of Alaska Street, while the Farmers’ Market anchors its usual block—SW Alaska will be closed from 42nd to 44th for the festivities. The Admiral District got a jump on Halloween spirit yesterday with trick-or-treating along California Avenue. Runners of all ages are gathering this morning at Lincoln Park, kicking off a weekend packed with community spirit.From city hall, we hear about a new push for public safety combining officer pay raises with fresh accountability measures and revamped ways the city responds to 911 calls. Meanwhile, the 2025 cruise season wrapped as Seattle’s busiest ever—nearly two million passengers and 1.2 billion dollars in economic benefit for local shops, hotels, and restaurants. On the jobs front, the robust cruise season means hospitality hiring remains strong, and tech job growth, while slower than last year, still outpaces the national average, according to recent state workforce reports.In real estate, the median home price in King County is hovering just above 800 thousand dollars, with inventory tight but open houses well-attended in neighborhoods like Ballard, Green Lake, and Capitol Hill. Renters are feeling the pinch too, with average rents up about five percent over last fall.Sports fans are still buzzing about the Mariners’ American League Silver Slugger Team of the Year nomination and three players up for individual honors. On the field, local high school football playoffs heat up this weekend, with Garfield and Lincoln both clinching postseason berths—games to watch as the rain and wind swirl overhead.And here’s a feel-good note to close: a West Seattle nonprofit is stepping up support for local veterans, offering free meals and counseling services at the American Legion Hall on California Avenue, a reminder of the community bonds that define our city even on stormy days.If you’re headed out today, remember to drive carefully in the wind, check ferry alerts before crossing the sound, and give yourself extra time for detours along SR-520, where closures continue. Stay dry, stay safe, and enjoy the weekend’s lineup of family fun and local flavor.This has been Seattle Local Pulse. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
