It’s day two of the Seattle weather that brought us snow-covered streets yesterday, and bumper cars on ice on Queen Anne Avenue last night. And though we have sunny skies today, colder temperatures have ensured that the icy roads remain.
Here are a few reminders for traversing the second-day ice:
Buses will be crowded and significantly delayed, perhaps even worse than Monday due to the road conditions. If those conditions severely deteriorate overnight, Metro may have to cancel entire bus routes in the morning.
Bus riders should check www.kingcounty.gov/metro/snow for the most current status of Metro service before traveling Tuesday. If you do not have internet access, call Metro’s Customer Information Center at (206) 553-3000. Due to the volume of calls, there could be a wait on the phone lines.
