Kansas City's Weather, Traffic, and Community News - Sunday Pulse
Good morning, this is Kansas City Local Pulse for Sunday, September 28.
We are waking up to a warm and sunny start across the metro, with temperatures climbing quickly and highs expected near eighty-nine degrees this afternoon. There is barely a cloud in sight and rain is not expected, making it a perfect day for outdoor plans. The warmth will stick around for the work week with just a few clouds rolling in tomorrow and highs staying in the upper eighties.
Our city has been moving fast this weekend, so let’s get right to the news. In breaking developments, street closures are expected near Chouteau Trafficway as an overturned semi on southbound I-35 has traffic down to just one lane. If your route takes you through Midtown, be aware that a water main break along 31st Street between Main and Woodland caused disruptions yesterday, but crews finished repairs overnight and all lanes are back open.
From city hall, there’s talk around Jackson County’s offer to temporarily house detainees from Kansas City in the old jail, aiming to relieve pressure off crowded facilities. Meanwhile, the Missouri Governor is set to sign a long-awaited redistricting bill later today, though the event will be private.
Turning to crime and safety updates, Kansas City police report a tragic overnight hit-and-run at Independence Avenue and Hardesty, where a bicyclist was killed. The department is asking anyone with information to come forward. On a positive note, the missing fourteen-year-old reported in the northeast part of the city has been found safe and reunited with family.
In local business, change is coming to the Country Club Plaza: J.H. & Sons, a men’s clothing shop, is set to open in spring next year, and Vertice, a new Italian restaurant, is expected in 2026. On the flip side, the national news that Starbucks will close hundreds of stores and cut hundreds of jobs has many Kansas City workers uncertain about local impacts, though the Plaza and Westport locations remain open today.
Local real estate continues steady, with single-family home prices holding around three hundred and twenty thousand and for-sale signs popping up in neighborhoods like Brookside and Lee’s Summit. On the job front, new postings are holding strong in logistics and health care, but many service sector openings may slow with upcoming retail closures.
Sports are buzzing today. Arrowhead gets the attention this afternoon with the Chiefs set to take on the Ravens at 4:25, both coming into the game one and two. Odds have the Ravens as slight favorites, but hometown energy could tip the scale for our defending champs. The Royals secured another win last night over Oakland with pitcher Michael Wacha notching his tenth victory. They wrap up their series today at Kauffman Stadium.
In our schools, congratulations go to Harrisonville High School for winning twenty-five thousand dollars in a national contest, a proud moment for our entire region. Local students are also gearing up for the annual district science fair at Union Station this week.
Looking ahead, community events include the grand opening ceremony for the KC Streetcar Main Street Extension later this week. The city invites everyone to celebrate, with food trucks and music lined up along the expanded route.
Let’s close on a feel-good story. The ITC of Greater Kansas City is marking its eightieth anniversary, continuing to help small businesses reach new markets and create jobs for our neighbors.
