Another weekend, another list of events and activities – UW Huskies are at Centurylink tonight (traffic impact now!), WSU Cougars are at CenturyLink on Saturday, and the Storm are at KeyArena on Sunday night. No home games for the Seahawks or Sounders, and the Mariners are away until Monday, when they return to play the Angels at Safeco.
Also – heads up for a Lower Queen Anne traffic alert – it falls outside of our weekend purview, but Madonna is performing at the Key Arena on Tuesday, October 2 and Wednesday, October 3 – expect a lot of traffic, and very little (if any) street parking.
Weekend Traffic Impacts:

Super Swarm, September 29, 3-5:30pm or later – unknown number of bicyclists will leave Occidental Park at 3 pm and travel north to Westlake Mall, “attempting to create traffic gridlock along the way” SDOT
