Avoid all beaches around the #Seattle area, that power outage from the wind storm caused a NASTY sewage spill.

Something about this scene looks surreal to me. #river #dawn #photography #photog #photo #Seattle

I posted this to Reddit years ago and got downvoted horrible, I think because I mentioned that it was taken on the Green River. That river is notorious for the Green River Killer.

Carkeek Park, #Seattle, Jan 7, 2021
Blissfully, not raining. Muddiness was quite tacky but ford-able with many rivulets draining everywhere. Folks sleeping rough in the park have tents pitched at much higher ground, and active water run-off is loud when walking the trail.

It's been confirmed by multiple sightings over the holidays that there is a *cougar* actively doing cougar-things in the Discovery Park-Magnolia neighborhood.

More info and safety tips, esp if you have small children or walk a dog in that area:

headline - Jenny Durkan Is a Failed Mayor

"Every December, Mayor Jenny Durkan releases a list of accomplishments from the year, putting a positive spin on another year of her administration. This year’s report came out the same week as her announcement of not seeking a second term. The second announcement betrayed the truth of the first: Durkan has led a failed administration. "
