Good morning, this is your Bellingham Local Frequency for Saturday, November 15, 2025.

We’re waking up to some damp weather after yesterday’s persistent rain across the Northwest, so keep your rain jackets handy if you’re heading into town. There’s a bit of extra water on local roads, and while Bellingham hasn’t seen the same flooding as down in Seattle, it’s smart to stay cautious, especially near low-lying areas. Grab a warm cup of coffee and let’s dive into what’s happening around our corner of the world.

First, a word of caution on the food scene. State health officials have linked ten E. coli cases to cheeses from Twin Sisters Creamery in Ferndale. The voluntary recall covers several popular lots, including Whatcom Blue and Farmhouse. If you bought any local cheeses lately and can’t confirm the batch number, the Department of Health urges you to be safe, toss them out, and sanitize your fridge just in case.

On a brighter note, tonight is a special musical event for fans and families. The Hotel Bellwether is hosting “Candlelight: The Best of Hans Zimmer” this evening at 6:30. Get ready for a magical night of movie music, and it’s the perfect cozy activity for a rainy Bellingham Saturday.

If sports are more your style, Western Washington University’s volleyball team takes on Simon Fraser tonight at 7 over at Carver Gym. The energy is always high, and it’s a great way to support the Vikings as cold weather sets in. The men’s basketball Vikings have been on a heater lately too, pulling off a dramatic win in the West Region Tipoff Challenge and will be back on the court again soon.

Looking forward, there’s even more to put on your calendar: next Saturday brings Cascade Cross cyclocross racing out at Hannegan Speedway, and indoor bocce returns to the Sportsplex on Tuesday morning for those who like gentler competition.

This week also shined a spotlight on local leaders making a difference behind the scenes. Alejandra Cabrales, a Bellingham-based immigration attorney, was honored with the state’s Public Service and Leadership Award for her work helping folks through legal clinics and volunteering in the community. It’s awesome to see Bellingham’s spirit of compassion recognized at the state level.

And finally, here’s a reminder to support your neighborhood businesses and events. The lingering fall weather has ushered in the official season for bookshops, coffee house meetups, and wandering along the Saturday Farmers Market while it lasts.

This has been Bellingham Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
