Apex listeners, let's get you caught up on the last 24 hours around town.
The weather has been doing its early-summer thing: warm afternoons, muggy evenings, and just enough breeze to keep your walk around downtown from feeling like a sauna. Windy.app's Jordan Lake forecast shows a light southwest wind between about 5 and 7 miles per hour with stronger gusts over the water, so if you're heading out in a kayak or fishing boat, expect mostly calm water and clear skies with almost no rain risk. With that sunshine, tree and grass pollen are still hanging around at moderate to high levels across the Triangle, so allergy-prone listeners may want to keep that antihistamine close. Air quality across Wake County has been generally good, dipping into the moderate range at times in the late afternoon as ozone levels tick up with the heat, but still safe for outdoor sports and evening walks for most folks.
On the sports side, local high school teams have been wrapping up their spring playoff runs. While detailed box scores are still filtering in, area schools have been finishing conference baseball and softball schedules and shifting toward summer workouts and conditioning as graduation festivities wind down. Around the broader Triangle, Harrells Christian Academy, which competes with schools Apex fans know well, has varsity boys basketball practice on the schedule this afternoon according to the school's campus calendar, a reminder that hoops never really goes out of season.
For things to do, WRAL's June Triangle events list highlights Pride Stories in Apex, a family-friendly gathering with crafts and sweet treats celebrating local LGBTQ voices and stories. It is a perfect excuse to duck into some air conditioning, grab something sweet, and connect with neighbors. Looking ahead a bit, the Triangle is gearing up for a full slate of Juneteenth celebrations; DoRaleigh.com's Juneteenth guide shows events planned in Apex alongside Raleigh, Durham, Cary, and beyond, so listeners can expect music, food, and history-focused programs to fill the calendar very soon.
Around the county, Wake County Government reports that the median price of real estate in May dipped slightly to 465,000 dollars, a small but notable shift in a market that has been red-hot for years. For Apex homeowners and hopeful buyers, that could signal a bit more breathing room as inventory and interest rates jostle for balance.
That is your quick spin through the last day in Apex, from weather and allergies to sports and what is happening around town. Thanks for tuning in, and don't forget to subscribe so you never miss an update. This has been a quiet please production, for more check out quiet please dot ai.
