The sun, seen here through the branches of one of Maple Leaf’s heritage trees, made a brief appearance late this morning. Then came the rain.


Skier at the Maple Leaf Community Garden, around noon.

——————————————–

It’s 34 degrees outside at 8 a.m., and rising through the day. In fact, there are no freezing temperatures in the National Weather Service forecast.

It’s still a mess out there, though. The arterials are pretty good – but the snow on sidewalks and side streets is compacted and slipperier than Thursday. There’s a community council road report here.

No residential garbage collection today and only limited commercial service.

Road conditions permitting, garbage, recycling, and food/yard waste service will resume tomorrow — with customers scheduled for pickup today collected Saturday.

If your materials are not picked up, please put them out on your next regularly scheduled pickup day. Missed customers will be allowed to set out double their normal amount of garbage, recycling and yard waste at no additional charge.

Oh, and the city wants YOUR help clearing storm drains. Video here.

And look, the Seattle Times found our igloo!
