Seattle Times (RVP news partner):
A daylong rain Saturday and cool, cloudy weather Sunday kept the crowds down for the final weekend of Seafair.
It also reduced the number of boaters on Lake Washington arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence.
On hot, 80-degree days during past hydroplane-race weekends, as many as 148 boaters were arrested in cases of boating under the influence, a misdemeanor. Through mid-afternoon Sunday, only 54 had been cited. Read more.
