Social Security payments will come early for some WA residents this month

If you were born in the early days of the month and are waiting for November's Social Security payment, check your account a day early. This month's first Social Security payment will arrive on a Tuesday for the millions of Americans who usually receive their checks on the second Wednesday of every month. In November, the second Wednesday on Nov. 11 is Veterans Day and the federal holiday will slightly affect payment dates. November's first check will arrive on Nov. 10 instead of Nov. 11, and then later in the month as schedule on the third (Nov. 18) and fourth (Nov. 28) Wednesdays this month. Supplemental Security Income payments will also not have an early November payment date because Nov. 1 fell on a Sunday this year. Those payments were issued on Friday, Oct. 30. Here's what to know about this month's Social Security payments in Washington. When will I get my November Social Security payment? If you normally get Social Security on the second Wednesday of each month, your payment will come in one day early on Nov. 10. All other payments will continued as scheduled later in November. See when the rest of Social Security payments will come

Keep your eye on the water this month. King tides and Kelvin waves are coming

In The Grateful Dead’s first Billboard Hot 100 single, “Uncle John’s Band,” Jerry Garcia famously sings, “Got some things to talk about, here beside the rising tide.” Here in the Pacific Northwest, we’re no strangers to rising waters in the winter, with our king tides usually arriving in November and lasting through February. This year, there’s a bit more to talk about, though. King tides arrive this year on Nov. 23 and will stick around until Nov. 27. They reappear again on Dec. 22. NOAA is forecasting high tides up to 13 feet in the Puget Sound during November’s king tides. In addition to marking the arrival of Washington’s king tides, November is also our stormiest month. Forecasters are calling this week’s weather a “ storm train ,” with atmospheric rivers converging over Western Washington to bring multiple days of gusty winds and smattering rain. Nov. 8 saw huge waves bashing Washington’s coastline as a weekend windstorm knocked the power out for over 100,000 customers across Western Washington. When high winds and waves sync up with king tides, much of Washington, from the coast to the inland waters of Puget Sound, has to prepare for rising waters (think levees, bulkheads

Washington just opened a property tax break most veterans don’t know exists

Washington veterans who didn’t get property tax relief for years may finally qualify in 2027, but the state isn’t going to call to tell them. Beginning with taxes due in 2027, a combined service-connected disability rating of 40% or higher will be enough to enter the state’s exemption program. The old bar was 80%. The change comes from Engrossed House Bill 1106, sponsored by State Rep. Stephanie Barnard (R-Pasco). The original version would have dropped the rating to 20% by 2028, but the Senate amended it to stop at 40%. Lawmakers passed it in 2025.
