Good morning, this is Charlotte Local Pulse for Saturday, July 12. Let’s start with the weather, since it’s going to shape our day. We’re waking up to a cloudy, muggy morning with temperatures in the mid-seventies around Uptown. By midday, the sun breaks through, pushing highs to the upper eighties. We do have a chance for some afternoon showers, so let’s keep those umbrellas handy if we’re heading to Independence Park or out to run errands. The forecast hints at scattered storms through early evening, tapering off as we get into nighttime.

The city is buzzing today with anticipation for Charlotte FC’s big match against New York City FC. Kickoff is 7:30 tonight at Bank of America Stadium. Charlotte FC has a strong record at home against NYCFC, so spirits are high for another exciting night under the stadium lights. For those not attending in person, the game is on MLS Season Pass and local radio as usual.

On the business front, Governor Josh Stein just announced that two major companies are expanding here in Charlotte. AssetMark and Citigroup are set to bring more than 750 new jobs to Mecklenburg County over the coming year. This follows a recent uptick in job postings across the region, especially in finance and tech. Real estate continues to run hot, with median home prices hovering around 430 thousand dollars according to the latest numbers. We’re seeing new listings pop up in Plaza Midwood and South End, while supply is tight in Ballantyne and Myers Park.

City Hall is making headlines with new transit developments. CATS announced that starting today, the Blue Line will undergo maintenance, so expect some service changes and possible delays, especially if our commute takes us through South Boulevard or UNC Charlotte. Meanwhile, starting Monday, lane closures hit I-85 for a new bridge project connecting University City with University Research Park. Officials warn of potential delays, so it’s a good weekend to plan alternate routes.

In community news, a quick shout out to the East Mecklenburg High robotics team, who just returned from nationals with a top ten finish—a proud moment for our Charlotte schools.

Turning to crime and safety, police responded to a stabbing last night near North Tryon, resulting in serious injuries. The investigation is ongoing, and officers are asking anyone with information to contact CMPD. Separately, there was a targeted shooting outside Carolina Place Mall in Pineville last evening, leaving one person injured. Police believe this was an arranged meetup that turned violent and want residents to know they believe there is no ongoing threat to the public. On Thursday, a vehicle crash involving a CMPD cruiser on South Tryon left two with minor injuries but thankfully no life-threatening harm.

Looking ahead, the Levine Avenue of the Arts block party kicks off this afternoon, bringing live music, food trucks, and family fun through the evening. If music is your thing, The Evening Muse in NoDa is hosting a local band showcase tonight, and there’s a new art exhibit opening at the Mint Museum featuring Carolina creators.

And here’s a feel-good story for your Saturday. Volunteers from Habitat for Humanity gathered on Beatties Ford Road yesterday to help a local grandmother finish the ramp for her new home, just in time for her birthday celebration. She told us it’s the best present she could imagine, and we couldn’t agree more.
