Good morning, this is Pittsburgh Local Pulse for November 22, 2024.
We start with breaking news: a tornado has been confirmed by the National Weather Service to have passed through Pittsburgh's Highland Park and Lincoln-Lemington-Belmar neighborhoods[1][3]. This unexpected weather event has left residents assessing damage and cleanup efforts are underway.
In other news, a late-night explosion in Clairton has left 8 people displaced and 2 apartments destroyed. The cause is still under investigation, but it's believed to be related to a gas issue[5]. Additionally, there was a shooting incident at a Pittsburgh gay club, with one person injured. Police are investigating the incident[4].
Moving to the job market, while there are no major hiring announcements today, we note that the housing market has been challenging this year, but HomeBuyers of Pittsburgh remains optimistic about the future[1]. In related news, the proposed 2025 budget by Innamorato includes significant public safety spending, which could impact local employment in that sector[1].
In real estate, there are no notable commercial or residential property sales to report today, but we do see ongoing development projects, such as the Pittsburgh Walk of Fame in the Strip District, which is bringing a touch of Hollywood to our city[1]. Weekly median home prices and inventory levels remain steady, but specific numbers are not available today.
From city hall, the recount in the McCormick-Casey Senate race has begun, with nearly 200 residents speaking at the Allegheny County council in support of a proposed tax increase to fund various programs[1]. This could have significant implications for local residents and businesses.
Weather-wise, the first snow of the season is likely to hit Southwest Pennsylvania this week, so we advise everyone to prepare for potential disruptions. Today, expect cooler temperatures and possible rain showers.
In new business activity, Dee Jay’s BBQ Ribs & Grille is expanding to Murrysville with the acquisition of North Park Lounge, offering more dining options for residents[1]. Additionally, Delina's EthioCafe is serving traditional Ethiopian coffee on the go, a unique addition to our local food scene[1].
Upcoming community events include free Thanksgiving food available at the Pittsburgh convention center, a great opportunity for those in need[1]. For sports enthusiasts, while there are no major local achievements to report today, we encourage everyone to check out the 2024 Pittsburgh area concert calendar for upcoming entertainment[1].
In a feel-good community story, the Monongahela Area Chamber of Commerce welcomes new members, highlighting the growth and community spirit in our region[3].
Today's crime report includes the arrest of a Pittsburgh man in connection with a Wilkinsburg killing, and a former Westmoreland County director of purchasing charged with theft of nearly $10,000[1]. We also note the ongoing investigation into the shooting at the gay club and urge anyone with information to come forward.
This has been Pittsburgh Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
