The Four on the Floor basketball tournament was held on Saturday, July 23, 2011, to benefit the Shoreline Public Schools Foundation.

A Four on the Floor basketball tournament is a organized form of school yard "pick up" games.

It is played on a regulation court with two teams of four playing against each other. In regular basketball there are five players on a team.

There are age classifications for teams and winners play winners and losers play losers until overall classification champions emerge.

Most of the kids play league basketball during the year.

Some of the men's teams will play in other four on the floor tournaments around the area and state as well as informal leagues and games in Puget Sound.

Most of the men have played high school ball and some have college experiences.

The teams pay a entrance fee to the organizer and the sponsoring organization, Shoreline Foundation, will receive a portion.

Tree Trimmers.  Photo by Valerie Craig.
Tree trimmers working in Richmond Beach appear poised over the cliff.  The day was beautiful, though, and the view was glorious.  Here's hoping they were more secure than they appear in this photo by Valerie Craig.

Photo: X-Band Radar vessel

Tuesday, May 17, 2011

Carl Dinse took this shot from Richmond Beach Saltwater Park May 10th of the Sea Based X-Band Radar (SBX) vessel (Missile Defense Radar), as it slowly cruised down Puget Sound on its way to Vigor (formerly Todd) Shipyards. In this photo it had just entered the Puget Sound at South Whidbey Island. (Hint: it's the one with the sphere.)

WeatherWatcher: 4.25 inches of snow in Shoreline

Wednesday, January 12, 2011

Central Market under 5 inches of snow.  Photo by Carl Dinse.
Snow started falling right about 7:15 pm Tuesday night. Heavier snow hit at around 9 pm at which point about 1 inch had accumulated. At 1 am we had 4-5 inches of snow on the ground depending on the area and elevation. The rain started to mix in at about 2:15 am Wednesday morning but it was off and on snow and rain until about 6 am. After 6 am the temperature rose sharply and all precipitation turned to 100% rain. It also got quite breezy this morning and afternoon.

Snow Melting and warmer weather is here
As the snow melted and temperatures warmed, even though it stopped raining at about 9 am the rain gauge was measuring rain for most of the day as the snow piled in the rain gauge melted down. Including the snow melt off, we've recorded 1.37 inches of rain so far since midnight. More rain is on the way and it's expected to be very wet. Land and mud slides may be a risk once again.

Overall
Total snow accumulation at the weather station at 2 am was 4.25 inches. It begin to melt off after that time. No freezing rain occurred in Shoreline so we only had to deal with a slushy wet mess for the morning commute hours, no ice thankfully.

Several readers told us to check out this display on N 192nd west of Meridian before Wallingford, so here is our final Christmas Lights of the season.  I believe it included music and animation - we'll get that next year.
