Good morning, this is Pittsburgh Local Pulse for March 22, 2025.
We're waking up to a chilly morning here in the Steel City, with temperatures expected to climb to the mid-50s later today. Our next chance of rain arrives on Thursday, so enjoy the dry weather while it lasts.
In breaking news, the search continues for University of Pittsburgh student Sudiksha Konanki, who disappeared in Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, almost two weeks ago. Local authorities are working with international agencies to locate her.
Turning to city developments, construction is underway for the new music venue in the Lower Hill district. This project aims to revitalize the area and bring more entertainment options to our city.
In transportation news, the Parkway North HOV lanes are set to reopen, but expect some restrictions on the Parkway East due to ongoing bridge construction. Plan your commute accordingly.
On a somber note, we're sad to report the passing of Jon Burnett, a beloved retired host and weather forecaster from KDKA-TV. He leaves behind an incredible legacy in Pittsburgh broadcasting.
In sports, Pirates ace Paul Skenes is making waves as he navigates his growing fame. Fans are excited to see how he'll perform in the upcoming season.
For job seekers, there's good news as several new businesses are opening their doors. The annual Pittsburgh Home & Garden Show kicked off yesterday at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center, showcasing potential employment opportunities in various home improvement sectors.
In real estate, the market remains competitive with the average home price in Pittsburgh hovering around $250,000. New developments are popping up in neighborhoods like Lawrenceville and East Liberty.
Music lovers, mark your calendars! Billy Joel is set to perform in Pittsburgh soon, his first show back on the road after a brief hiatus due to medical issues.
Looking ahead to community events, the Breakthrough T1D Community Summit is happening today in Cranberry Township. It's an excellent opportunity for those affected by Type 1 Diabetes to learn about the latest research and connect with others.
In school news, congratulations to the robotics team from Pittsburgh Science and Technology Academy, who secured a spot in the upcoming national competition.
On a lighter note, the Pittsburgh Zoo has become the first in Pennsylvania and fourth in the U.S. to receive a prestigious conservation designation, highlighting our city's commitment to wildlife protection.
In public safety news, police have arrested Stephen Ebner for allegedly starting a fire on Evergreen Avenue earlier this month. Residents are reminded to stay vigilant and report any suspicious activities.
Lastly, baseball fans will be excited to hear about new food items available at PNC Park this season. From pierogies to gourmet hot dogs, there's something for every taste.
This has been Pittsburgh Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
