Birders crossing back and forth over the mountains this winter might wish to
bookmark the Washington DOT Mountain Pass Reports (lists all of 'em) page.

Updates continually. Also, while you're there, click on the "cameras" option
which puts you live, on I-90 Snoqualme Pass via DOT's live video camera feed
to see for yourself. The cam is supposed to update every 30 seconds, but
while I there, I could swear that people were out sunning & warbler watching
-- just kidding <g>. Obviously, the "view" is not so good at night (is it
ever?!), and seems not to actually update while you are at the site (or it
was stuck in a loop), but, it's close enough.

Planning a trip from the east side to WOS and SAS meetings or birding at
Alki, not to mention commuting to/from work? There are other links to camera
feeds (Seattle metro) to check out at your leisure or needs. I don't work
for the DOT btw. :-)) Otherwise, just the plain ol' radio is your next best
friend.
