概要

Good morning, this is Charlotte Local Pulse for Thursday, February 5th. We kick off today with breaking news from City Hall, where council just approved a 15 million dollar upgrade to Uptown's light rail along Tryon Street, easing commutes for thousands of us heading to work downtown and cutting travel times by up to 10 minutes. This means smoother rides for your daily grind starting next year.

Shifting to the weather, WCNC's Weather Impact team reports chilly temps in the low 40s this morning with scattered showers around Independence Boulevard, so grab that umbrella if you're heading to the Panthers practice fields or Freedom Park jogs. Expect clearing skies by noon, highs near 52, perfect for outdoor errands.

On the job front, we're seeing about 2,000 new postings in healthcare and tech near the UNC Health campus, up 12 percent from last month per local listings, while real estate heats up too median home prices around Ballantyne hovering at 425,000 dollars, with 150 new listings popping up along Providence Road.

New business buzz a trendy coffee spot, Brew Haven, opens tomorrow at NoDa's North Davidson Street strip, bringing artisanal roasts and live music nights, while that old diner on Central Avenue shutters after 30 years, making way for affordable housing.

Community events wise, catch the Charlotte Symphony's free winter concert series at Blumenthal Center this weekend, and don't miss the Black History Month block party Saturday at West Trade Street's Innovation District.

Quick school shoutouts Myers Park High's debate team snagged first at regionals, and Independence High boys basketball crushed rivals 78 to 55 last night.

Crime report from the past 24 hours stays calm no major incidents, just a few arrests for minor thefts near Eastland Yards, and CMPD urges us to lock up bikes around the light rail stops. Stay vigilant, neighbors.

For a feel-good lift, local volunteers rallied yesterday to plant 200 trees along the Little Sugar Creek Greenway, boosting our green spaces and uniting families from Plaza Midwood.
