  • "Celebrating Phoenix's Fiery 4th: Fireworks, Food, and Community Spirit"
    2025/07/02
    Word on the streets of Phoenix is that the summer is heating up, but our city’s energy is even hotter. I’m Morgan Riley, and here’s what’s making local headlines today.

    Phoenix is gearing up for the Fourth of July, and celebration is in the air across the Valley. According to KJZZ and FOX 10, cities throughout metro Phoenix are planning a dazzling array of festivities, from fireworks spectacles in Avondale and Chandler to patriotic parades and free family festivals. If you’re looking for that classic American cookout, food trucks and family zones will be everywhere, while sunset firework displays are set to light the sky at venues like Jimmie Johnson Drive in Avondale and the Buckeye Airport. With more than 20 major events in the metro area, every neighborhood has a place to join in the Independence Day spirit.

    But not every story this week is one of celebration. FOX 10 Phoenix reports a tragic incident early Monday morning, when a woman was struck and killed while crossing mid-block in Phoenix. Police arrested the driver, who they say showed signs of impairment. It’s a sobering reminder to stay alert on the roads, especially during holiday weeks, as traffic volume and celebrations both rise in July.

    Let’s take a moment for a story that highlights the best of our community. K-9 Piper of the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office became a local hero this week, successfully finding a missing little boy within just three hours by tracking his scent. The relief felt by his family and neighbors is hard to overstate, and it’s one of those moments that shows what’s possible when we come together—and when our four-legged officers get the recognition they deserve.

    Turning to the arts and events scene, Phoenix is buzzing with things to do all month long. Concerts, splash events at local hotels, and art exhibitions are drawing crowds. Into the Woods is running at the Phoenix Theatre Company through July 13, and everyone’s talking about Moulin Rouge! The Musical coming to ASU Gammage later this month. Families can enjoy the Foam Zone at the Children’s Museum or take part in cultural festivals like the Buy Black Marketplace at The Archwood at Eastlake.

    Weatherwise, the classic Valley sun sticks around this week, with highs in the triple digits. If you’re headed outdoors for fireworks or festivals, remember to hydrate, seek shade, and protect yourself from the sun. Our monsoon season hasn’t cut the heat, so stay safe out there.

    Phoenix has always been a city of resilience and renewal. As we gather to celebrate Independence Day, or reflect on stories both somber and uplifting, it’s clear that community strength is our signature. Music, fireworks, a heroic dog, and a shared sun—these are the rhythms of summer life in the Valley.

  • "Surprising Showers in the Valley: Phoenix's Unpredictable Desert Weather"
    2025/06/30
    Word on the streets of Phoenix is that we've got a lot to talk about today. I’m Morgan Riley, and whether you’re starting your workday or winding down, thanks for tuning in to your source for the latest in the Valley of the Sun.

    Starting off, the Phoenix area has been in the news for a rare June weather event. According to ABC15 Arizona, this month is shaping up to be the second wettest start to June on record in Phoenix, with 0.45 inches of rain already recorded. For a city better known for sweltering heat and triple-digit dry spells, it’s a refreshing change that’s left many locals chatting about their soggy morning commutes and greener-than-usual lawns. It’s a subtle reminder of just how unpredictable the desert can be.

    In major news, ABC15 reports that there were two fatal crashes overnight this weekend, one in Phoenix and another in Mesa. Local authorities are investigating both incidents, and reminders are being put out for everyone to drive safely, especially with more unpredictable summer weather and increased holiday travel on the roads.

    On a lighter note, I want to spotlight Papago Golf Club, where the National Golf Player Development Foundation recently held its second annual fundraiser. The event gathered golfers and supporters from all over Phoenix with a mission—to drive diversity and open up the sport for young people of color. It’s the kind of grassroots effort that connects with Phoenix’s history as a place of opportunity and underscores how the city’s future is being shaped on every fairway and green. Mark Lowry, the event founder, shared his passion for empowering the next generation, echoing a classic Phoenix trait—building strong community ties through shared purpose.

    Looking to the skies, the drizzle may soon give way to rising temperatures as we approach July, so keep those umbrellas close but your sunscreen closer. As for community happenings, the KOLI Equestrian Center is hosting summertime group rides all the way into September, and Independence Day celebrations are set to light up the Valley this weekend—perfect for families, friends, and anyone who loves a good fireworks display.

    As we close out today, I invite you to reflect on what makes Phoenix unique: a city that blends the grit of the desert with a collaborative spirit, where weather surprises and neighborly efforts bring us all a little closer. Our news is more than headlines—it’s a conversation, shaped by every listener tuning in.

  • "Keeping Phoenix Cool: Beating the Heat with Community Care"
    2025/06/29
    Word on the streets of Phoenix is that our community is as vibrant and dynamic as ever. Good morning, I’m Morgan Riley. Here’s what’s making headlines across the Valley as we step into the weekend.

    The big local story of the past few days centers on the continued heat and efforts to keep residents safe. With temperatures rising well past 110 degrees, the Salvation Army has opened heat relief stations around the Valley, providing water, air conditioning, and a cool place for those in need. As our infamous summer heat ramps up, these stations remain a literal lifesaver, especially for our vulnerable neighbors. The city continues to urge everyone to look out for one another—check on elderly friends, offer bottled water to folks outside, and of course, stay hydrated. Our city’s resilience shows up strongest when we care for each other during these tough stretches.

    This week also brought a moment of reflection as Dr. Warren Stewart, a pillar in Phoenix’s civil rights and faith communities, prepares for his retirement. After nearly fifty years at First Institutional Baptist Church, his legacy includes groundbreaking work for equality and social justice in Arizona. Dr. Stewart’s influence has touched countless lives, and his commitment to unity and hope resonates far beyond his congregation. His story is a powerful reminder of how one person can make waves of positive change over decades—something that speaks to the heart of Phoenix history and its evolving identity.

    Turning to something a little lighter, the local arts scene is buzzing this weekend. Into the Woods continues its run at The Phoenix Theatre Company, bringing classic tales to life with a contemporary twist. Live music fans can catch the Candlelight tribute to Coldplay at Warehouse215 tonight, while the Totally Tubular Festival hits Arizona Financial Theatre tomorrow, celebrating that retro spirit. And for the insomniacs, Splash After Dark at the Sheraton downtown is the place to cool off and unwind all month long, proving Phoenix nightlife thrives even in the summer heat.

    Weather-wise, we’re in for more triple digits, with clear skies and a few wispy clouds, so if you’re heading to any of these events, dress light and stay cool. Remember, it’s the dry heat we all know, but it sneaks up on you.

    As we close, I’m reminded of something Dr. Stewart once said—real change happens when communities show up for each other every single day. Whether you’re volunteering at a cooling center, or supporting a local artist, you’re writing a piece of Phoenix’s story.
