Severe Weather Alerts, Graduations, and Summer Festivities - Virginia Beach Local Pulse
Published 10 months, 2 weeks ago
Description
Good morning, this is Virginia Beach Local Pulse for Saturday, June 7, 2025.
Virginia Beach is under a severe weather alert starting tomorrow afternoon, as meteorologists are tracking a strong thunderstorm system that's expected to bring gusty winds, hail, and potential flooding to our region through Tuesday. If you have outdoor plans for tomorrow, you might want to consider alternatives or be prepared to move indoors quickly.
Today marks a special occasion for many local families as Bryant & Stratton College's Hampton and Virginia Beach campuses hold their commencement ceremony. The event is being livestreamed for those who can't attend in person.
In law enforcement news, Virginia Beach Police are investigating a police shooting that occurred on Honeygrove Road. One suspect has been hospitalized, but authorities assure us there is no threat to the public. Details remain limited as the investigation continues.
City Council recently held a special formal session to consider adoption of the fiscal year 2025-2026 budget. The meeting included discussion about potentially increasing the Town Center Special Service District rate, though no final decision was announced.
Looking for something fun to do this weekend? The Oceanfront is buzzing with activity. Tonight, head to 29th Street for a movie night on the beach - part of a summer series running through August 21. And if you're planning ahead, mark your calendars for June 20-22 when Hampton Roads Pride Weekend brings festivities including a beach party right here in Virginia Beach.
Music lovers should note that the Point Break Festival featuring Slightly Stoopid and Stick Figure is coming up on June 21-22 at 5th Street. Later this month, La Fiesta Virginia Beach will bring Latin food, colorful costumes, and energetic music to the 24th Street Stage on June 27-28.
The Atlantic Park development continues to progress, with its new state-of-the-art concert venue set to open soon. This indoor-outdoor facility represents a historic moment for Virginia Beach's entertainment scene.
In real estate news, the city continues discussions about stormwater management, with a recent resolution providing for the issuance of Stormwater Utility Revenue Bonds of up to $90 million to finance improvements to our stormwater system - critical infrastructure as we prepare for hurricane season.
This has been Virginia Beach Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
