Love the sight or hate the sound, you just can’t ignore them.  The U.S. Navy Blue Angels are buzzing into town this week to wow spectators with their aerial stunts for the 60th annual Seafair. 

A good place on Queen Anne where you may be able to spot the planes is from Kerry Park (2nd Ave W. and W. Highland Dr).  With weather cooling off to the 90s, it’s going to be a good weekend to watch an air show.  Here is a list of their scheduled fly-bys to help you plan for (or avoid) the spectacle in the sky.

Thurs, July 30  10am-noon (circle and arrival); 1:30-2:30pm (practice show)

Fri, July 31  1:30-2:30pm (practice show)

Sat, Aug 1  1:30-2:30pm (full show)

Sun, Aug 2  1:30-2:30pm (full show)

Traffic will be jammed as I-90 closes at various times throughout the weekend starting on Thursday.  If you must cross Lake Washington via I-90, the DOT recommends giving yourself an hour before closure times.  The SR-520 floating bridge is open all weekend but closed to marine traffic during I-90 closures.
