  • Fort Worth Update: Lockheed Secures Contract, Weather Outlook, and Community Events
    2025/04/22
    Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Tuesday, April 22, 2025. We’re starting the day with updates on several projects and happenings around town. First, a major announcement from the Department of Defense: Lockheed Martin Aeronautics here in Fort Worth just secured a substantial contract, valued at up to one hundred eighty million dollars, boosting local aerospace jobs and reinforcing our city’s national reputation in defense manufacturing.

    Turning to the weather, after yesterday’s storms that grazed the Metroplex, today we’re looking at partly cloudy skies with temperatures in the mid seventies and breezy conditions. If you’re heading out, pack an umbrella for the afternoon as scattered showers are possible. The rest of the week shows warming temps and a calmer outlook.

    Construction remains a common sight, especially on the west side of downtown. Water and sewer main replacements are underway along Lancaster Avenue, Summit, Henderson, and several side streets. Expect lane closures through the week, so give yourself extra travel time if your route takes you near the T&P Station or down West 7th.

    Over at City Hall, council is preparing for the May third municipal election, with residents weighing in on local propositions and future funding. Meanwhile, the city continues to benefit from American Rescue Plan funding supporting infrastructure and community programs.

    In the job market, aerospace and public infrastructure remain stable sources of employment, while the service sector sees a bump from spring events and conventions. Real estate remains competitive, with new listings in popular neighborhoods like Fairmount and the Cultural District averaging just over three hundred fifty thousand dollars.

    Looking ahead to today’s community events, the Will Rogers Memorial Center is hosting the third annual Total Feeds USTRC National Breakaway Championships. The action begins at 1 p.m. in the Watt Arena, featuring youth and open roping competitions with top riders competing for cash prizes and championship buckles. Spectators can catch all the action on Roping dot com, or head down to the arena for a live look.

    Tonight, the Fort Worth ISD Board meets at the District Service Center on Camp Bowie Boulevard. Public comment begins at five thirty, and notable items on the agenda include updates on student achievement and district safety protocols.

    Sportswise, there’s a push to grow hockey’s popularity in Tarrant County. Youth programs at local StarCenters are expanding, and with over three thousand Stars fans in the area, local leaders are hopeful for more homegrown talent on the ice in the coming years.

    In crime news, the past twenty-four hours have been relatively quiet here in Fort Worth, with no major incidents reported. Still, police remind us to remain vigilant, especially in busy shopping areas and parks.

    Rounding out today’s news, a feel-good story from Trinity Park, where hundreds of volunteers came together over the weekend for the Keep Fort Worth Beautiful campaign. Their efforts helped clear litter and restore green spaces, just in time for spring outings and family gatherings.

    This has been Fort Worth Local Pulse. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

  • Fort Worth News: Protests, Safety Updates, and Community Highlights
    2025/04/19
    Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Saturday, April 19th, 2025.

    We start with breaking news this morning as the city is preparing for a peaceful protest downtown at Burk Burnett Park from noon to 4 o’clock. Nearly a hundred people gathered last weekend at the Tesla dealership on North University Drive, and today, organizers expect more to take part in the Hands Off 50501 event, marching to the Fort Worth Club on West 7th Street. This demonstration joins cities across the country speaking out on national policies, and so far, officials say previous gatherings remained calm and respectful with no major incidents reported.

    Turning to public safety, we’ve seen a couple of high-profile incidents in the past twenty-four hours. Two people are in custody after a hit-and-run outside a Fort Worth saloon; witnesses say a convertible struck a woman and drove off, but thanks to quick action from bystanders and off-duty officers, arrests were made and the victim is recovering. In another case, a DoorDash driver was stabbed and carjacked outside a Waffle House. Police made an arrest and say the driver is stable and expected to recover. Early Friday evening, emergency crews responded to a major crash involving several motorcycles on I-35W. Southbound lanes near Rosedale remain affected this morning, so please plan for delays if you are headed that way.

    On the city government front, Fort Worth has kicked off a new round of public feedback on its Vision Zero plan, aiming to make city streets safer and reduce traffic fatalities. The city council will review suggestions in the coming weeks, and any changes could impact daily commutes for many of us.

    In housing news, Dallas-Fort Worth tops the nation for closed home sales in March. The housing market remains hot with thousands of new residents moving in, and local agents say average prices are up compared to last year. For those looking for work, the job market remains robust, especially in healthcare, logistics, and tech. Employers across the city are hiring, offering signing bonuses and flexible schedules to attract talent.

    On the cultural beat, Fort Worth Country Day is celebrating a month of student achievements, including academic honors and sports victories. In local music, we look forward to live performances at Panther Island Pavilion this weekend, and the city’s art scene continues to thrive with new exhibits opening at the Modern and the Amon Carter Museum.

    Our weather today stays on the warm side, with highs in the upper 70s and a light breeze from the south. Skies are mostly clear, and it looks like a perfect day for outdoor community events or just enjoying some time in our beautiful parks. The forecast calls for more sunshine tomorrow, though we could see a few clouds by Monday.

    Before we go, here’s a feel-good story: local volunteers organized a dementia-friendly sing-along Sunday School that brought smiles and memories to seniors across Fort Worth. It’s a touching reminder that our city’s spirit is strongest when we support each other.

  • "City Hall Opens, Colleges Upgrade, Gymnastics Champs Arrive in Fort Worth"
    2025/04/17
    Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Thursday, April 17, 2025.

    Let’s start with breaking news from City Hall. The doors are now open at the new City Hall in the former Pier 1 building, a major step forward as our city continues to grow. Over on Green Cedar Avenue, the Fort Worth Housing Solutions Board of Commissioners comes together today for their monthly meeting. And if you have feedback on local education, the Tarrant County College Board of Trustees is meeting this evening, with some big ticket items on the table. These include agreements and renovations worth millions that aim to upgrade classroom spaces and support new scholarship programs, which could benefit our students for years to come.

    Weather-wise, we’re waking up to a mild morning with a few clouds expected to stick around. Temperatures will reach the mid-70s today, so it’s comfortable but keep an umbrella handy if you’re heading out later. There’s a slight chance of a brief shower, but nothing that will wash out our events.

    Speaking of events, Fort Worth is buzzing with excitement as the NCAA Women’s Gymnastics Championships take over Dickies Arena from today through Saturday. This is the eighth consecutive year our city has hosted and the fifth at Dickies. We’ll see top-ranked teams including Oklahoma, LSU, Florida, and Michigan State hitting the mats with hopes of a national title. It’s especially historic for Michigan State, making their first championship appearance in 37 years. Crowds are expected to be big, so give yourself extra time if you’re driving near Montgomery Street or the Cultural District.

    On the community front, bartenders and bar staff in the busy 7th Street District are getting trained to use NARCAN. It’s a proactive move as North Texas responds to a rise in opioid overdoses. This hands-on training means our nightlife venues will be safer for everyone.

    For our school spotlight, Fort Worth ISD made headlines this week with Superintendent Karen Molinar issuing a heartfelt apology to the North Side High School cheerleaders after allegations of racial slurs at a recent game. It’s a reminder of the challenges our schools face and the ongoing work toward unity and respect.

    Turning to real estate and jobs, we’re watching steady activity this spring. Several major renovation projects were approved just yesterday that will create hundreds of construction and design jobs across the Tarrant County College campuses, giving local workers new opportunities.

    In crime news, Fort Worth police have two people in custody after a hit-and-run outside the Rhinestone Saloon on Ellis Avenue. A woman was seriously injured when struck by a convertible. Officers are still determining who was driving at the time. Our thoughts are with the victim as she recovers.

    As a feel-good note, we celebrate community resilience as Fort Worth continues to grow, invest in safety, and host national events that put our city on the map.

    This has been Fort Worth Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
