Bellingham Local: Spring Sights, Safety Advisories, and Community Events
Good morning, this is your Bellingham Local Frequency for Thursday, April 10, 2025.
Spring is in full swing, and there’s plenty happening around Bellingham today. Let’s start with the weather. After a round of storms earlier this week, today looks much calmer. Expect partly cloudy skies with temperatures hovering around the mid-50s—perfect for getting outside and enjoying the beautiful day. Just a heads up, though, as the Nooksack River remains high after heavy rain, so be cautious near low-lying areas.
In local news, Bellingham police have already logged over 100 DUI arrests this year, so if you’re going out, make sure you’ve got a sober ride. On the transportation front, Amtrak service through Bellingham continues to be limited due to inspections, but partial service is expected to resume soon. If you're driving, watch for lane closures on I-5 through town as crews work on repairing damage from last year’s landslides.
For those looking to get involved, the Whatcom County Charter Review Commission meets tonight at 6 p.m. at 311 Grand Avenue. This is your chance to weigh in on key local policies, including initiatives and referendums. If public planning is more your scene, Bellingham is still collecting feedback on its Urban Forest Plan, which aims to preserve the greenery that makes our city so special.
Now, let’s talk events! If you’re in the mood for some community fun, head over to the Central Library today for the Building and Crafting Fun event—a great activity for all ages. Theater lovers can check out the Bellingham Theatre Guild’s performance of "Play On!" this evening. It’s a hilarious play within a play that promises plenty of laughs. Meanwhile, if you’re downtown, pop into one of the many live music venues—you’re bound to find something to match your vibe.
For sports fans, prep athletes across the county are kicking off their spring seasons, and it’s a great time to support your local teams. The Mariners are also in action tonight, hoping to extend a strong start to their season.
Finally, a couple of quick reminders: Everson has issued a boil-water advisory out of precaution, so residents there should take note. And for those heading to Mt. Baker, avalanche advisories remain active, so be careful if you plan to explore the backcountry.
That’s all for today. This has been Bellingham Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates!
