Right now in Seattle
Kraken home at Climate Pledge Arena tonight — 7:30 PM faceoff.
Seattle Center compresses for hockey nights. Monorail from Westlake is the cleanest move; the 8 from Capitol Hill is the local pick. Driving Mercer is the wrong call.
Link is the calm path

Recent network changes
The 2 Line and Judkins Park Station
Sound Transit's 2 Line now runs across I-90 from Redmond and Bellevue to downtown Seattle, meeting the 1 Line at International District / Chinatown Station. Transfers are cross-platform. The line added Judkins Park Station on the western edge of the Mount Baker / Central District neighborhoods — the first light rail station east of I-5 in inner Seattle. For Eastside-to-SoDo trips on match days or game days, the 2 Line into ID/Chinatown plus a one-stop 1 Line ride south is now the calmest option.
Bike today?
YesYes — conditions are fine.
Mild day, AQI in normal range. Burke-Gilman is the call for Cascade-trail riders; Lake Washington Blvd for the views. The SODO Trail is reliable through the city.
Why: 46°F
