Albuquerque Local Pulse: Spring Storms, Route 66 Concerts, and City Updates

Published 2 weeks, 1 day ago
Description
Good morning, this is Albuquerque Local Pulse for Saturday, April 11. We kick off with breaking news from overnight: APD homicide detectives arrested two suspects in a shooting death in front of a residence west of Old Town, bringing some closure to a tragic incident. KOB reports our skies stay mostly cloudy today with showers and thunderstorms building after noon, especially east of us, so we grab rain gear for outdoor plans and watch for gusty winds near the Sandias. Expect a quarter to half inch of rain in spots, with drier air tonight and breezy southwest winds Sunday.

Over at city hall, public hearings loom on environmental permits, like the Clean Water Act certification at the NMED office on Gibson Boulevard, affecting how we manage stormwater daily. On a brighter note, the reopened Route 66 Visitors Center off Central Avenue launches a free eight-week New Mexico concert series today at noon, starting with Ivon Ulibarri, Café Mocha, and Son Como Son, plus food trucks and Tractor Brewing. It runs every Saturday through May, showcasing locals like the Albuquerque Jazz Orchestra.

Head to Historic Old Town tomorrow for family fun with free kids activities, artist demos, and local eats from the citys fiestas lineup. Our Isotopes got a boost last night when Andrew Knizner smashed his third homer at Rio Grande Credit Union Field, keeping playoff hopes alive in minor league action.

Job market stays steady with about 15,000 openings posted locally last month on sites like Indeed, many in healthcare around UNM Hospital. Real estate sees median home prices around 320,000 dollars, up five percent year-over-year per Zillow trends, with hot spots near Journal Drive.

A feel-good shoutout: local schools like Albuquerque High celebrated a robotics team win at the state tourney, inspiring our kids. No major new business openings today, but stay tuned.
