Wet Weather Woes, ICE Raid Concerns, and Community Engagement Opportunities in Bellingham
Good morning, this is your Bellingham Local Frequency for Friday, April 11, 2025.
Let’s kick things off with your weather update. Rain is likely to persist today, with some potential heavy downpours and wind gusts reaching up to 45 miles per hour. While it might be a wet one, the weekend looks somewhat brighter—though rivers, including the Nooksack, could be nearing action levels due to the continued rainfall, so stay cautious near waterways.
In local news, the City of Bellingham has been ordered to pay $2.25 million in damages after a jury found it failed to act on domestic abuse allegations against a former police officer. This ruling has been a major talking point locally, shining a light on accountability within public institutions. Meanwhile, the community is also discussing concerns surrounding a recent ICE raid, which led to the detention of 37 individuals, drawing responses from state representatives and advocacy groups alike.
For commuters, heads up: a continued two-day lane closure on I-5 in Bellingham for hillside repairs might slow things down. Make sure to plan for delays. Additionally, for train travelers, Amtrak service is still facing disruptions due to ongoing inspections, with partial service expected to resume soon.
Looking for something to do today? There’s plenty happening across town. Comedy fans can head to the Great Blue Heron Grill at 7 p.m. tonight for a night of laughs featuring Gabriel Rutledge. Music lovers might enjoy live performances from 6 to 8 p.m. at Stones Throw Brewery in Fairhaven. For bookworms, Village Books and Paper Dreams will host Carolyn Russo Kinne for a discussion of *The True Adventures of Milton Ginsberg.*
If art is your vibe, the Lightcatcher Building is featuring a variety of exhibits by local and regional artists. Or, if you’re itching for some outdoor fun before the rain kicks in too hard, Bellingham’s parks and trails are always a good bet for a fresh-air break.
Finally, looking ahead, public engagement opportunities include providing feedback on updates to Bellingham’s Urban Forest Plan and draft chapters of the city’s comprehensive plan. It’s your chance to have a say in the future of our green spaces and community development.
That wraps up today’s update. This has been Bellingham Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates. Stay safe, stay informed, and have a fantastic Friday!
