LIVESTREAM: Pres. Obama's Visit To Seattle

3:55 p.m.: That's a wrap for us. Thanks to all of you for checking out our live blog today, and to those of you who send us updates and shared your thoughts on Facebook and Twitter.

3:55 p.m.: Wheels up, Air Force One is off and headed to California.

3:52 p.m.: Air Force One is taxiing for takeoff at Boeing Field.

3:38 p.m.: Pres. Obama just boarded Air Force One.

3:21 p.m.: The president's motorcade is moving southbound on I-5 back toward Boeing Field.

3:13 p.m.: I-5 southbound in Seattle is closed for the president's motorcade.

3:08 p.m.: The president's speech just wrapped.

He was originally scheduled to depart Seattle at 3:15 p.m., but he's obviously way behind schedule at this point. We're unaware of what the revised timeline is, but we'll continue rolling on the livestream for now.

2:45 p.m.: Capitol Hill Seattle reports that even though the president has taken the state at the Paramount, closures on Pike and Pine streets persist.

2:39 p.m.: Pres. Obama just took the stage at the Paramount.

2:35 p.m.: We just posted a report from the AP on Pres. Obama's remarks in Medina. He spoke out against Republicans' plans to trim government and said that party's vision of government would "fundamentally cripple America."

He added, "From the moment I took office what we've seen is a constant ideological pushback against any kind of sensible reforms that would make our economy work better and give people more opportunity."

2:32 p.m.: Bill Russell and Lenny Wilkens are speaking.

2:27 p.m.: KIRO 7 Traffic Reporter Autumn Wells says crews have cleared the stalled car that was on I-5 southbound at 45th Street. It was partially blocking traffic right after the freeway was reopened.

2:17 p.m.: Traffic on I-5 southbound is starting to move again, but it looks like there's a disabled vehicle blocking one of the center lanes at 45th Street, just before the University Bridge.

2:11 p.m.: I-5 traffic is starting to loosen up again after the president's motorcade passed. Didn't see him in one of the cars, but we're pretty sure he's arrived at the Paramount.

2:05 p.m.: We've received a few Tweets from people who are angry that they've spent almost an hour sitting in traffic while the president's motorcade sat in Medina.

2:02 p.m.: There's a decent possibility that traffic leaving the Seahawks game will be held up by the president's motorcade.

1:53 p.m.: The president's motorcade is just now leaving Medina.

1:43 p.m.: Once the president does arrive at the Paramount, the event is expected to last about an hour.

1:41 p.m.: The 520 Bridge has been closed for more than 20 minutes now. If you haven't left home yet, I-90 will likely be the quicker route.

1:36 p.m.: Pres. Obama still hasn't left Medina, though he was expected to arrive at the Paramount at 1:30 p.m.

1:27 p.m.: Live now at the link above, Gov. Gregoire is speaking.

1:24 p.m.: Looks like we'll be able to bring you some of the president's remarks from the Paramount. Check out the livestream link above.

1:19 p.m.: State Route 520 is closed at 84th Avenue Northeast.

1:15 p.m.: Our livestream of Pres. Obama's visit is back up and running. The president is still in Medina but is scheduled to be at the Paramount Theater in Seattle at about 1:30 p.m. If you're driving in those areas, be advised that you may be affected by road/freeway closures.

12:51 p.m.: If you're viewing this on a mobile device and can't see the links to the videos of Air Force One landing and the president getting off the plane, try these links:

12:44 p.m.: We've received some questions as to how much money the president's trip is costing taxpayers. We'll work on getting exact figures, but we do know that most of the cost of the trip is being picked up by the president's re-election campaign.

12:38 p.m.: We're pausing our livestream coverage for about 30-40 minutes while the president attends a private fundraising brunch in Medina. The link will stay up with an animated graphic in the meantime.

12:33 p.m.: The president and his motorcade have arrived in Medina and all freeways have reopened.

12:24 p.m.: Just uploaded a couple videos of Air Force One at Boeing Field and Pres. Obama exiting the plane:

12:19 p.m.: As Autumn Wells pointed out, it looks as though the motorcade will take the 520 Bridge over to Medina.

12:17 p.m.: The president's motorcade is approaching downtown Seattle on I-5.

12:00 p.m.: I-5 southbound at Roanoke Street is closed off now, too, traffic reporter Autumn Wells says.

11:54 a.m.: We've just received an alert that I-5 northbound has been shut down at Boeing Access Road.

11:49 a.m.: Several local politicians on hand to greet the president, including Gov. Gregoire, Seattle Mayor Mike McGinn, Rep. Norm Dicks, King County Executive Dow Constantine and others.

11:48 a.m.: You can catch a livestream of the president's visit here:

11:46 a.m.: Air Force One has landed at Boeing Field.

KIRO 7 Traffic Reporter Autumn Wells says that traffic may not be as bad as initially expected, because of the fact that Interstate 405 is not closed this weekend as originally planned.

It isn't known what route the president will take en route to Medina for his first fundraising event, and the Secret Service doesn't give out that information, so we won't know until he goes.

11:20 a.m.: Hello, everyone. Pres. Obama is scheduled to fly into Seattle at about 11:50 a.m., which may affect traffic heading to today's Seahawks game. Be advised and plan ahead.
