Heavy Rain, Shooting Probe, and Venture Race Kickoff - Virginia Beach Local Pulse
Published 11 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
Good morning, this is Virginia Beach Local Pulse for Tuesday, May 13, 2025.
We're tracking several storm systems moving through our area today. Expect heavy rain with temperatures reaching around 75 degrees during the day before dropping to 64 degrees tonight. There's a high chance of precipitation at 61% and winds around 19 mph, so secure any loose items in your yard. If you're heading to the Oceanfront, prepare for stormy conditions with possible thunderstorms throughout the day.
In breaking news, Virginia Beach Police have detained a suspect following a fatal shooting that occurred early Wednesday morning. One man has died in this incident, and authorities are continuing their investigation. We'll bring you more details as they become available.
The community is still recovering from Friday's significant hail storm that hit parts of the city around 4:30 PM. Residents in the Shipley Court area captured dramatic video of the severe weather event that caused property damage across several neighborhoods.
Today marks the kickoff of the Virginia Beach Venture Amazing Race and Tour, starting this morning. This popular event combines sightseeing with friendly competition as participants explore hidden gems throughout our city.
On the city governance front, last week's City Council meeting addressed the potential referendum on our council election system. The council voted on whether to put the 10-1 district system versus the modified 7-3-1 system on November's ballot. This decision will shape how our local representatives are elected in coming years.
A Portsmouth family is pleading for help in the case of their loved one who has been missing for three months. Meanwhile, in Elizabeth City, authorities have launched a death investigation after a man was found deceased in his apartment.
In sports news, Cleveland Browns linebacker and Bethel High School product Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah will unfortunately miss the 2025 NFL season due to injury, a significant setback for the Hampton Roads native.
On a positive note, local environmental groups are celebrating a record-breaking year for cold-stunned turtle rescues along our coastline. Volunteers have worked tirelessly to protect these vulnerable creatures during unusually cold water temperatures.
For those looking to give back, several community beach cleanup events are scheduled for this weekend as we prepare for the summer tourism season. Check the city's website for locations and times.
This has been Virginia Beach Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
