    Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Saturday, May 2nd. We kick off the weekend with clear skies after yesterday's rainy chill, and those morning temps in the 40s to low 50s are warming fast to the low to mid-70s this afternoon. Low humidity means it feels crisp and perfect for outdoor fun, so Mayfest at Trinity Park along the Trinity River banks is primed for a huge day from 10am to 10pm tonight. No rain in sight, making it ideal for live music, carnival rides, and family eats, with adult tickets at twelve bucks or eleven if you grab them early. Mayfest is in full swing through Sunday, celebrating its 54th year with proceeds boosting parks and trails around the Trinity.

City Hall's buzzing with no big disruptions today, keeping traffic smooth on University Drive and around the Stockyards. New business scene stays steady, no major openings or closings shaking things up. Real estate's holding firm with median home prices around 350 thousand, drawing families to neighborhoods like Arlington Heights. Job market's solid too, with about 15 thousand postings in logistics and tech across Tarrant County last week. On the sports side, local high schools shone yesterday, with Paschal Eagles clinching a playoff win in soccer. Crime report from the past day stays calm, just a minor theft arrest near West 7th, no public safety alerts.

    Fort Worth Local Pulse: May Day Rain, Firefly Park Updates, and Local Elections

    Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Friday, May first. We're waking up to a wet morning here in North Texas, and if you're heading out, you'll want to grab an umbrella. We're in the middle of a significant forty-eight hour rain event that started yesterday, and forecasters are calling today a total washout, especially for your morning and evening commutes. We're expecting heavy rain potential with localized ponding possible, and temperatures will stay cool in the fifties throughout the day. The good news is there's no severe weather expected, just beneficial moisture for our area. By this weekend, things turn spectacular with plenty of sunshine and highs in the seventies, so hang tight through today and tomorrow. On the development front, construction is really ramping up at Firefly Park in north Frisco. The mixed-use development located between US 380 and the Dallas North Tollway is going vertical on several projects including the Aurora, a high-rise residential tower, plus structured parking and a chapel. We're looking at about forty percent of retail already leased with major tenants like Tyler's, Frenchie, and Woodhouse Spa already signed on. The first phase alone will bring a hundred twenty thousand square feet of retail, plus office space, hundreds of residential units, a luxury hotel called Hotel Voeux, and a forty-five acre park. Retail construction should wrap up late next year, with the hotel and townhomes opening in early twenty twenty-eight. Speaking of community activities, if you're looking to kick off the month, the Modern Art Museum has its First Friday event happening tonight with live music and drinks. This is a great way to celebrate the start of May here in our area. For voters in Fort Worth, Saturday May second is your final chance to cast a ballot in local elections. You'll be deciding on fifteen propositions that affect our community, so if you haven't voted yet, make sure to get out tomorrow. On the job front, there's some significant news coming out of the tech sector. Cognizant, a major technology company, is making moves that are grabbing attention. They're investing six hundred million dollars in AI infrastructure and acquiring companies to boost their AI capabilities, but they're also planning to lay off around four thousand employees, roughly one percent of their global workforce. They've set aside nearly two hundred seventy million specifically for layoffs and restructuring, with target savings of between two and three hundred million this year.

    Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Thursday, April 30. We start with breaking news from our severe weather over the last couple days. The National Weather Service confirmed five tornadoes across North Texas on Tuesday, including an EF3 that tore through Mineral Wells along Highway 180, injuring five people and leveling warehouses in the industrial area. Three more hit Johnson County near Cleburne, Rio Vista, and Cresson, with baseball-sized hail damaging homes around Lake Pat Cleburne. No fatalities here, but curfews are in place in the hardest-hit spots, and crews are clearing debris. Today's calmer skies mean we can get out for cleanup and events, though watch for scattered showers this afternoon with highs in the mid-70s. Shifting to our neighborhoods, experimental art shines at Giant Runt Gallery on St. Louis Avenue in the Near Southside. Their show Everyone is Someones Baby opens tomorrow evening from 6 to 9, free admission, spotlighting bold local creators. We love how it brings us together after tough weather. City Hall updates include smart moves on daily life, like healthcare expansions discussed at the Chamber of Commerce yesterday, boosting jobs in medical innovation. Speaking of jobs, the Continuing the Climb Job and Resource Fair kicks off tomorrow at 10 a.m. at Resource Connection Gym, perfect timing with about 2,000 openings listed in Fort Worths market this month. Real estate stays steady, with median home prices around 350,000 dollars, up slightly near the Stockyards. New business buzz a fresh gallery spot and no major closings reported.

    Fort Worth Recovers: Tornado Damage, Community Resilience, and Local Updates

    Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Sunday, April 26. We start with breaking news from last night: severe storms battered North Texas, including our area, with an apparent tornado striking Runaway Bay near Lake Bridgeport, claiming one life and injuring several others while displacing about 20 families, according to Wise County Judge J.D. Clark. FOX4 News reports a car got stuck in floodwater in southwest Fort Worth, and the National Weather Service issued flash flood warnings for Tarrant County until early this morning, with 1.5 to 3 inches of rain falling. DFW Airport saw departure delays averaging nearly 3 hours. Tragically, no major crimes reported in the past day, but we urge caution on roads like Interstate 30 and Camp Bowie amid lingering water. These storms hit hard, so today's activities face impacts—stay off low-lying spots near the Trinity River trails and Benbrook Lake. Winds from the south gust up to 38 miles per hour under partly cloudy skies, with a slight chance of scattered showers later, per Windy forecasts. Turn around, dont drown, listeners. Shifting to brighter notes, City Hall updates include ongoing recovery efforts, with the American Red Cross setting up at 513 Port O Call Drive in Runaway Bay for reunification—well help however we can. In real estate, median home prices hover around 350,000 dollars, up 5 percent from last year amid steady demand near Stockyards. Job market stays strong with about 12,000 openings, especially in logistics at AllianceTexas. New business buzz: a fresh barbecue joint opened on South Hulen, drawing crowds already. Community events ahead—tonight's open play basketball at city rec centers on Hemphill Street, and tomorrow's Best Years Club Senior Prom for older adults at the Log Cabin Village. Local schools shine: Paschal High's team won their regional soccer match 3-1 yesterday. And a feel-good story—neighbors in River Oaks rallied to clear downed trees on Berkeley Avenue, sharing meals and rebuilding bonds. We appreciate you tuning in—subscribe for daily updates.

    Fort Worth Local Pulse: Alliance Logistics Launch, Spring Events, and Weekend Weather

    Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Saturday, April 25. We kick off with big news from our AllianceTexas area, where the new Alliance Logistics District just launched yesterday, bringing autonomous semitrucks to Mobility Way, Distribution Drive, and Intermodal Parkway. This partnership with Hillwood, BNSF Railway, and our city promises faster cargo hauls, less traffic on public roads, and jobs in logistics and manufacturing, all while a twenty million dollar bridge gets built to link it up by late 2027. It means smoother supply chains for us all. Shifting to city hall, no major votes today, but were watching the ongoing data center talks from Mayor Parker that could ease property taxes soon. On the job front, the Continuing the Climb Job and Resource Fair hits Resource Connection Gym Wednesday at ten AM, perfect for anyone hunting work in our growing economy. Weather wise, we have few clouds now at eighty two degrees with south winds at nineteen knots, but storms could pop up this afternoon near DFW Airport, with wind and hail risks east of the dryline. Highs hit ninety, so plan outdoor fun early, like tomorrows Landscape Collage workshop at one PM at Amon Carter Museum or FuelFest at Texas Motor Speedway. New business buzz includes Texas Legacy Florals and Gifts ribbon cutting yesterday, and free electronic recycling Monday at Frost on Taylor Street. Culture fans, catch the fourth Annual SpOscars spoken word event tonight at seven thirty at The Dock Bookshop on Meadowbrook Drive, or WWE Friday Night Smackdown last night lit up Dickies Arena. Sports note, TCU Horned Frogs baseball faces Houston tonight at six at Williams-Reilly Field. Local schools had a quiet week, but Azle ISD made headlines in that Tanner Horner trial with teacher testimony on his past challenges. Crime report from the last day stays calm, no major incidents or alerts from Fort Worth police, keeping our streets safe. Looking ahead, Fort Worth Spring Senior Expo Tuesday at Botanic Garden, and FoodieLand Festival in June at the Speedway. For a feel good lift, community rec at NAS JRB Fort Worth opens Tuesday through Saturday, nine to five, building bonds. Thanks for tuning in, listeners, and subscribe for more.

    Fort Worth Local Pulse: Warm Weather Ahead, Storm Watch Tonight

    Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Friday, April 24th. We're tracking a warm and active weather pattern moving through North Texas today, and listeners should keep an eye on the forecast if you're planning outdoor activities. The National Weather Service is forecasting highs in the upper eighties to near ninety degrees this afternoon with southwest winds picking up to ten to fifteen miles per hour. While we're looking at mostly cloudy skies early on, we should see partial clearing as the day progresses. The bigger story is the severe weather potential developing mainly northeast of the metroplex this evening. There's a twenty to forty percent chance of isolated storms, and any that do develop could produce large hail and damaging winds, particularly into the late evening hours. If you're heading out tonight, keep those weather alerts turned on and have a way to receive warnings. On the local economic front, the North Texas job market is showing signs of stabilization after several years of rapid growth. According to recent labor data, employers in our region issued fewer layoffs in the first quarter of twenty twenty-six than any quarter since summer twenty twenty-four. While that sounds positive, it's important to note that hiring has also slowed considerably, marking a shift from the boom times we've experienced. The overall impact on North Texas workers totaled just under eleven hundred people affected by layoffs in the first quarter, a relatively modest number by recent standards. Over at City Hall, there's progress on our infrastructure. The city recently approved a ten-year street improvement plan that will invest fifty million dollars into upgrading streets throughout Granbury and surrounding areas. This is a long-term commitment to quality of life, but it means we should expect ongoing construction projects over the next decade as the work gets rolled out systematically. On the cultural side, Omni Hotels and Resorts is launching a nationwide celebration of heritage and timeless traditions this weekend, and they're partnering with local drive-ins here in Fort Worth to extend the festivities beyond their hotel guests. It's a nice opportunity for families looking for nostalgic entertainment as we head into the weekend. Looking ahead, the warm pattern persists through next week with temperatures climbing into the low nineties early in the week. Rain chances return by midweek, so we'll have some relief from the heat as we move forward. That's what's happening in Fort Worth today.
