Good morning, this is Lexington Local Pulse for Saturday, November eighth.

We wake up to breaking news this morning as the Fraternal Order of Police has taken legal action against the Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government. The police union claims that Lexington Police failed to follow Kentucky’s Law Enforcement Officers’ Bill of Rights during an internal investigation, saying their officer was placed on a severe administrative assignment without proper notice or process. This court fight centers around how our city holds officers accountable and could lead to changes in how future investigations are handled.

Police activity was otherwise steady overnight, with no major violent incidents reported, though we do have a public safety alert. Yesterday saw the arrest of a convicted sex offender by U.S. Marshals after a decade-long manhunt, right here in Lexington as reported by LEX 18. Police are reminding residents to stay vigilant, especially on Centre Parkway where there have been recent issues.

Let’s look at our weather. Clouds linger across Fayette County this morning and we’re starting off mild, with temperatures rising to about sixty-two degrees by afternoon. Light rain is possible in the early evening, so if you’re heading to Kroger Field for the Kentucky versus Florida football game tonight at seven thirty, you’ll want to bring a sturdy jacket and maybe some rain gear. Weekend weather looks cool and mostly dry, perfect for outdoor events.

From city hall, we have news shaping how we handle waste. Lexington launches Waste Reduction Week today, running through the sixteenth. There are events, tips, and even guided tours aimed at reducing what we throw away. For folks living near Southland Drive or the Chevy Chase area, expect some new drop-off points and educational activities. City officials hope this boosts sustainability going into the holidays.

Our job market remains strong, with around thirteen thousand open positions in Lexington, according to Indeed. Jobs range from warehouse coordinators to retail and restaurant work, with new listings in hospitality and technology. Amazon is hiring delivery drivers for the Hollow Creek area, offering up to twenty-four dollars an hour. Legal assistant and receptionist roles are opening downtown, while Caddy Moving is seeking athletic movers for flexible hours.

The real estate market sees steady activity. We’ve got several new homes hitting the listings around Tates Creek and Hamburg, while rental prices for apartments on Rose Street and Limestone remain firm but stable. Another home closed yesterday on Chinoe Road at just under five hundred thousand dollars.

In music and culture, Keeneland’s Churchill Downs host the Dream Supreme Stakes this evening at five twenty-five, with favorite Mink’s Palace among the top contenders. Local venues around Distillery District feature live bluegrass and jazz tonight.

Our schools celebrate student athletes as the Lexington Catholic soccer team clinched victory in last night’s playoff match at their Alumni Drive stadium, advancing them to state semifinals.

On a more heartfelt note, the community gathers today at noon for the funeral of Dr. Anwar Hussain at the Muslim Cemetery of Central Kentucky on Georgetown Road. Hussain, a leader in pharmaceutical science, touched thousands of lives, and local families celebrate his enduring legacy.

Looking ahead, Waste Reduction Week events kick off today. Don’t forget the Kentucky Wildcats face the Florida Gators tonight at Kroger Field, expected to draw a packed crowd and plenty of excitement.

Good morning, this is Lexington Local Pulse for Saturday, November 8th, 2025.

Let’s kick things off with today’s weather. Rain showers this morning are giving way to some breaks of sun by mid-afternoon, but temperatures will hover in the mid-50s. Tonight could get a little chilly, so if you’re heading out to Kroger Field, bundle up. Looking ahead, we might see a few more rain showers Sunday before a dry and brisk start to the week.

Our big headline today is college football taking center stage. The Kentucky Wildcats return home after a thrilling win against Auburn, where our defense completely outmatched the Tigers. Tonight, the Cats face their longtime rivals, the Florida Gators, at Kroger Field at 7:30. Both teams are 3-5 and hungry for another league win. Coach Mark Stoops’ squad has actually beaten Florida the last two times they’ve met right here in Lexington. It’s a real chance for momentum and a meaningful November matchup, the first of its kind at home since 1991. So expect energy high on and off Alumni Drive tonight.

On the basketball side, the University of Kentucky men rolled over Valparaiso last night at Rupp Arena, winning by nearly 50 points and starting their season 2-0. Jaland Lowe’s debut had the Blue Nation buzzing. We are already looking ahead to Tuesday’s showdown on the road against Louisville—a big rivalry week for Wildcats fans.

Shifting to crime and public safety, Lexington Police have been busy. According to LEX 18, U.S. Marshals arrested a man wanted for over a decade here in Lexington, closing out a long-running case. In other developments, a 36-year-old man was charged yesterday with murder following a shooting on Centre Parkway. Authorities urge anyone with information about recent incidents near Centre Parkway or off Nicholasville Road to contact police as investigations continue. Please stay alert and look out for one another, especially in those neighborhoods.

Taking a look at city hall, there are a few big decisions brewing. City leaders are weighing new zoning proposals that could affect development around the Hamburg Pavilion area and parts of downtown. While votes are expected next week, these changes could bring both new businesses and apartment projects, so it’s something we’ll be watching closely.

On the economic front, the job market in Lexington remains strong, bucking national trends. Local listings show more than 13,000 open positions today, including Amazon delivery drivers around Hollow Creek offering over 20 dollars an hour, crew jobs at Trader Joe’s, stockers at ALDI, and a wide range of health and office positions for all experience levels. Entry-level and part-time roles are growing especially fast, making this a good time for those looking to start or change careers.

In real estate, homes are coming on and off the market quickly, especially in neighborhoods like Chevy Chase and Liberty Heights. Average home prices in the region this month hover around 365,000 dollars, about five percent above last year, according to local realtors.

In campus news, a burst sprinkler system displaced around 66 students from Pigman Hall at the University of Kentucky this week. Many students were moved to new dorm rooms or are staying in hotels while repairs are ongoing. The university is offering extra support, but the disruption has been tough for those caught in the middle of midterms.

If you’re looking for something to do this weekend, Lexington is buzzing with activity. Farish Theater welcomes a local jazz trio tonight at 8, and the Lexington Farmers Market is open this morning at Cheapside Pavilion until noon, rain or shine. Keeneland Race Course isn’t hosting meets this weekend, but tours and fall events are drawing plenty of visitors to the grounds.

In local schools, congratulations to Henry Clay High’s soccer team on their playoff win last night, and shoutout to Lafayette Marching Band for clinching a top spot at the state semifinals.

To end with a feel-good note, the Lyon family of Kenwick Avenue opened their yard to host the annual neighborhood chili cook-off last night. They raised over 700 dollars for the Central Kentucky Food Bank, proving once again that our community comes together in big and small ways.

Good morning, this is Lexington Local Pulse for Friday, November 7th, 2025.

Let’s start with breaking news from Lexington’s police department, which is actively searching for Kiontae Butler. He’s wanted on multiple charges, including first-degree wanton endangerment and assault. Authorities are urging anyone with information to contact Bluegrass Crime Stoppers, and a reward is available for tips leading to his arrest. On the public safety front, two people were arrested yesterday after a robbery and disorderly conduct incident, keeping police on their toes as several neighborhoods emphasize watchfulness.

Turning to City Hall, we see several decisions that could affect our routines. New roadwork is underway, with closures along Leestown Center Way and extended lane closures on West Main Street. City crews have also closed part of Cooper Drive for stormwater improvements, so traffic may slow near the University of Kentucky and Chevy Chase. Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government has just welcomed 39 new firefighters, boosting staff and safety as we head into winter.

Weather is off to an interesting start today. We wake up to mild temperatures in the mid-50s with patchy clouds. The forecast calls for sun by midday and highs near 70, perfect for outdoor activities or that late fall walk along Town Branch Trail. Get ready for a few cooler days into the weekend, so jackets will come in handy during those Friday football games or Saturday market visits.

Lexington’s job market continues to buck national trends, staying strong while monthly job cuts hit nationwide highs. We’re still seeing steady hiring in healthcare, technology, and education. The University of Kentucky has posted new patient services and admin roles starting at about $18 an hour, while opportunities for legal assistants and logistics clerks remain open around downtown and out in Georgetown. Remote and hybrid roles are expanding, especially in customer service and sales.

For real estate, homes priced below 300 thousand near Beaumont and the Hamburg area are seeing brisk movement. New listings are up in the past week, but sellers are noticing offers coming in a little slower than they did last summer. That means a bit more time for buyers to weigh their options.

On the cultural side, the Equinox Jazz Fest returns to Lexington this weekend, breathing life into Distillery District venues with live music and food trucks through Sunday. Library branches on Main Street and Tate’s Creek have new art exhibits featuring local photographers—a great indoor outing if the rain picks up later this weekend.

Checking in on Lexington schools, Henry Clay’s soccer team celebrated a big win over Lafayette in last night’s rivalry match, while Dunbar High’s debate team advances to state championships after last weekend’s sweep. Even more, Marshall Pediatric Therapy is expanding options for children and families, supporting youth mental health right here in Central Kentucky.

As a feel-good story, Lexington quietly rallied together for the 13th annual Diana Ross Coat Drive. Neighbors have already donated hundreds of warm jackets, proving once again how we show up for each other as temperatures dip.

Good morning, this is Lexington Local Pulse for Thursday, November sixth.

Let’s start with breaking news this morning. In a major development for local health services, the owner of a well-known sober living home here in Lexington has agreed to plead guilty in a Medicare kickback case. Prosecutors will be dropping eleven other counts, a story that has ruffled many in public health circles. This development could have ripple effects on how addiction recovery centers operate across the Bluegrass.

Switching gears to the weather, we’re looking at a mostly sunny and pleasantly cool November day, with highs right around the upper fifties, so it’s a great day to get outside while you can. Breezes will ease up, making it comfortable for folks heading out to work or school. Looking ahead to Friday, make sure you keep your rain jackets handy—rain and gusty winds are expected to move in, and there’s even a small risk for a strong storm or two, especially later in the day. If you’re planning on Friday night lights at local high school football playoff games, you’ll want to keep an eye on the sky.

City Hall’s been busy this week, debating updates on local traffic flow along Nicholasville Road and considering a new measure to streamline small business permits. Changes here could save weeks for local entrepreneurs looking to open their doors and may make it easier for neighborhood pop-ups to turn permanent.

Speaking of business, Lexington is seeing a healthy job market. Healthcare, tech, and manufacturing are all seeking workers, with over thirteen thousand local listings on Indeed right now and starting wages for clinical roles now around twenty-three dollars per hour and up. There’s a spotlight today on a new opening for a Research Farm Technician at the University of Kentucky, which is perfect for folks interested in ag tech and food sciences, with pay ranging from just over fifteen to twenty-four dollars an hour. Nursing and lab tech jobs continue to be in high demand. Remote and hybrid positions are growing, giving many of us more options for balancing work and life.

In the real estate scene, reports from local agents show steady demand with new listings in Chevy Chase and near UK’s campus. Prices remain stable, but multiple bid situations are still common for homes under three hundred thousand dollars, especially with buyers looking to settle before the holidays.

Culturally, we’re gearing up for an exciting lineup at the Lyric Theatre with a sold-out jazz fusion night Friday, and over the weekend, the University of Kentucky’s Career Management Week kicks off. From Monday through Thursday, there are both virtual and in-person sessions on career growth, networking, and even a panel with top local alumnae sharing their stories over at the Campbell House on Broadway.

For sports fans, tomorrow’s weather might test football playoff goers, but Saturday’s forecast clears up—perfect for Kentucky’s home game against Florida at Kroger Field, where tailgating is always an event in itself. On the high school front, congratulations to the Henry Clay Blue Devils’ girls soccer team for their victory in the regional semifinals last night.

Community-wise, there’s a feel-good story this week out of Lansdowne, where neighbors came together to spruce up the playground at Ecton Park. Dozens volunteered, showing just how strong Lexington’s spirit of giving remains.

On the crime front, Lexington Police reported one notable incident overnight—a vehicle theft near Richmond Road, quickly resolved with an arrest just south of Alumni Drive. No injuries were reported, and police remind us to secure vehicles and stay vigilant as the holidays approach.

Looking forward, downtown’s chef-owned bakery on Main Street is reopening this morning after three months of renovations, promising fresh apple butter croissants and locally roasted coffee. Don’t miss the Veteran’s Day Parade coming up Saturday, with marching bands stepping off at eleven from Midland Avenue, a Lexington tradition that brings the entire city together.

Good morning, this is Lexington Local Pulse for Sunday, November second. Let’s get started with the stories shaping our day.

Breaking news from downtown Lexington, where a late Friday night altercation near West Main Street and North Upper Street sent three people to the hospital. Police say two adults sustained non-life-threatening injuries, while a third person refused medical treatment for minor cuts. The investigation is ongoing and local authorities are ramping up patrols in response to recent public safety concerns. If you have any information, Lexington Police urge you to reach out, as community vigilance is more important than ever.

Turning to a somber discovery near Masterson Station Park, the Fayette County Coroner’s Office has identified skeletal remains found last week as belonging to Jacqueline Kerry Heyman, a local attorney known for a past lawsuit against a state cabinet. While officials say Heyman died of natural causes, the investigation continues and residents are encouraged to share any information. This case has prompted renewed conversations about safety in our public spaces.

City hall also made headlines this week. The Lexington City Council unanimously approved ordinances to limit homeless camping on public property and to curb aggressive panhandling, aiming to make our downtown safer and more welcoming. As we move into colder weather, city leaders are launching a plan to shelter over two hundred unhoused neighbors. This response comes as temperatures drop and shows Lexington’s commitment to compassionate city management.

On the weather front, today brings scattered showers and brisk highs around fifty-three, cooling off to the high thirties overnight. Don’t forget your umbrella if you’re heading downtown or out to Triangle Park. The outlook for the next few days suggests drier, brighter conditions, with Monday bringing a return to sunshine and highs near sixty.

Lexington’s cultural calendar has been full. The Día de los Muertos celebration at the Lexington Opera House wrapped up yesterday, hosted by Bluegrass Youth Ballet and 250Lex, drawing families from across Fayette County. Triangle Park Ice Rink is open again for the season, welcoming skaters young and old to enjoy winter fun at the heart of downtown.

For sports fans, all eyes are on the Kentucky Wildcats, who took a tough loss against Tennessee last week but are gearing up to face Auburn this evening. The point spread favors Auburn, but our Wildcats are hoping for a bounce-back performance. Meanwhile, local high schools have seen standout achievements in both football and cross country as the fall season winds down.

In real estate and jobs, the market continues to shift. Local listings on Euclid and Tates Creek show steady demand, with homes averaging close to three hundred thousand dollars. Job openings across healthcare and education remain strong, with roughly three hundred advertised positions citywide. If you’re searching for a new opportunity, now’s a good time to check in with local career boards.

Before we close, here’s an uplifting reminder of community spirit. A Lexington man has launched a neighborhood food drive during the ongoing government shutdown, collecting hundreds of canned goods for families in need. His neighbors on Liberty Road have rallied with him, proving once again that small acts make a big difference.

That wraps up the latest, but as we look around, remember—our community keeps moving forward.

Good morning, this is Lexington Local Pulse for Saturday, November first, twenty twenty five.

We're starting this morning with an urgent community need. As federal SNAP benefits expire today, a Lexington resident has launched a neighborhood food drive to help families facing food insecurity. This comes as over five hundred thousand Kentuckians could be impacted by the government shutdown. Governor Andy Beshear has announced a state-wide food drive collecting non-perishable items for distribution through established charities. Fayette County Public Schools reports that approximately ten thousand students will lose their SNAP benefits, representing about twenty four percent of the district's student population. Local schools and nonprofits are collaborating to provide emergency food assistance during this critical time.

On the job front, there's activity across the region. The University of Kentucky is actively hiring for several positions including research farm technicians, extension agents across multiple counties, and a cooperative extension intern position. If you're looking for skilled trades work, we're seeing carpenter positions advertised at twenty two to twenty nine dollars an hour, and electrician roles at thirty to thirty three dollars an hour, with applications closing next week. There are also administrative and healthcare positions available throughout the area.

Around the city, Kinemetrix has announced a four million dollar manufacturing expansion in Lexington, adding twelve new jobs to the local economy. This is welcome news as our community continues to grow its industrial base.

We're also seeing some changes at city hall that affect your daily life. The Lexington City Council recently passed two ordinances addressing homeless camping on public property and aggressive panhandling concerns. As temperatures begin to drop heading into winter, the city is planning to house more than two hundred homeless individuals during the cold weather months.

For those hitting the roads today, there are temporary lane closures scheduled for New Circle Road tomorrow and Monday. Contractors will close the left lane from just before Leestown Road to just past the railroad bridge. Plan accordingly if you're traveling in that area.

On a brighter note, the forty fourth annual Kentucky Book Festival is happening today in Lexington. It's a great opportunity to celebrate literature and connect with authors and fellow book lovers in our community.

We've also got some positive momentum in the music scene. A local Lexington musician recently marked ten years of sobriety and has channeled that recovery into a purpose-driven music career that's gaining traction.

Finally, thank you so much for tuning in to Lexington Local Pulse this morning. We're glad you started your Saturday with us. Be sure to subscribe so you don't miss tomorrow's update on what's happening here at home. This has been a Quiet Please production. For more, check out quietplease dot ai.

Good morning, this is Lexington Local Pulse for Friday, October 31st, 2025.

We wake up to partly cloudy skies. Temperatures are cool, topping out near 55 today, with a low tonight around 39, so grab a jacket if you’re heading out. No rain is expected, but a brisk breeze could make it feel even chillier. That means our Halloween plans look safe from showers and we can expect pleasant weather through tomorrow before a chance of rain returns on Sunday, according to the Kentucky Weather Center and LEX18.

At city hall, leaders have announced that Kinemetrix just opened its expanded manufacturing operation in town. This is a four million dollar investment, bringing a dozen new skilled jobs to the area. Governor Beshear attended the ribbon-cutting and emphasized how this supports Lexington’s growing electric vehicle sector. The move adds momentum to the local job market, which continues to offer strong opportunities in healthcare, manufacturing, education, and tech. For those job hunting, companies in these sectors are now posting hundreds of new openings this week. Remote work, especially in business and tech, is also on the rise for our community.

In business news, reports from Here Lexington KY reveal a flurry of new licenses issued this month and highlight Kirin Holdings’ plan to sell the iconic Four Roses bourbon brand, with an asking price set around one billion dollars. This is big news for bourbon lovers and the local economy—especially as Kentucky’s distillers play a prominent role in community identity. While Ramaco Resources posted a quarterly loss, most sectors in town report steady growth. The overall business climate remains optimistic.

On the real estate front, home prices held steady this week, with homes in the Chevy Chase and Beaumont neighborhoods maintaining a median price near 350 thousand dollars. The rental market remains strong and stable, thanks to increased interest from new residents moving to the region for jobs and graduate programs at UK and Transylvania.

Now for some community events: Tonight brings excitement at Lexington SC Stadium with our home team facing Sporting Club Jacksonville at six o’clock. The stadium opens early for pre-game festivities—including specialty Halloween-themed cocktails and the popular Drink or Treat, plus dollar-fifty beer night. The first 250 fans score exclusive trading cards, and everyone’s invited to join the costume contest for premium prizes.

School spirit runs high. Henry Clay High’s soccer team clinched a spot in the state playoffs after yesterday’s 2-1 overtime win on Fontaine Road. Local students also celebrated a win at the state science fair, bringing home two golds and a silver for innovations in renewable energy.

Crime reports show a quiet 24 hours, with only minor incidents downtown. Police responded to a break-in near Jefferson Street overnight, making one arrest. Our officers remind everyone to stay alert while trick-or-treating tonight—keep a flashlight handy and stick to well-lit streets.

Finally, let’s end on a feel-good note. Volunteers at God’s Pantry Food Bank packed more than a thousand Thanksgiving meal boxes this week, thanks to donations from local businesses and families. Their efforts ensure that hundreds of Lexington families will celebrate together next month.

Good morning, this is Lexington Local Pulse for Thursday, October 30th. We wake up to a gray and damp morning. Scattered showers are coming through town, with highs around the low fifties and breezy conditions expected to stick with us through the afternoon. This soggy pattern will linger, so if you have plans outdoors or on campus, don’t forget your rain jacket. By tomorrow, we’ll see some clearing and slightly warmer air on the way heading into the weekend, which looks much better for anyone heading out to early Halloween festivities.

We start the day with breaking news from Ward Drive, where a shooting yesterday afternoon left one man hospitalized. Police responded quickly and the victim is now in stable condition, but so far no arrests have been made. The Lexington Police Department is asking for the public’s help as investigations continue. This is part of ongoing concerns around gun violence in our area, with several recent incidents still under active review, including a case on Ascot Park earlier this month.

From city hall, the Lexington City Council has just unanimously passed two ordinances aimed at addressing homeless encampments and aggressive panhandling. These new steps are designed to keep public spaces safer and more welcoming, particularly around downtown, Triangle Park, and the Vine Street corridor. If you frequent these areas, expect to see some changes in enforcement and new signage in the coming weeks.

On the economic front, Lexington’s job market remains healthy even as national headlines talk about layoffs and economic uncertainty. Over twelve thousand jobs in healthcare, education, manufacturing, and tech are open right now across Fayette County. Employers like International Paper, local hospitals, and even the Diocese of Lexington are hiring. Remote job options are on the rise, a trend that’s proving especially popular as flexible work becomes the new norm.

In real estate, agents report steady interest in properties across neighborhoods like Beaumont and Chevy Chase, with new homes breaking ground through Habitat for Humanity’s latest project on Russell Cave Road. While there’s plenty of activity, prices are holding steady—good news for both buyers and sellers looking to make a move before the holidays.

Turning to community culture, music fans will want to check out the lineup at the Burl this weekend. Lexington Craft Beer Week is also underway, featuring tastings from local favorites and special events across breweries like West Sixth and Ethereal. If you’re after something family-friendly, Saturday’s downtown Halloween parade is back starting at Main and Broadway, an annual favorite for costumes and candy.

In schools, congratulations go out to the girls soccer team for earning All-City honors, and to the music students at Bryan Station High after their standout performance at last night’s fall concert. Sports fans can look forward to a packed weekend, with UK football at Kroger Field and high school playoffs heating up across the city.

On the business front, a completed renovation brings Chick-fil-A in Hamburg back open after months of anticipation, complete with a revamped dining room and expanded drive-thru. Meanwhile, some local shops on Clay Avenue are shutting their doors, citing rising rents and shifting shopping habits downtown. Still, upcoming retail pop-ups and winter markets promise to keep our small business spirit alive.

We round out today with a feel-good story. Local nonprofits are joining forces this week to distribute free lunches and coats to neighbors in need as temps begin to dip. Volunteers at the Hope Center and God’s Pantry set a new record yesterday, assisting more than three hundred families in a single afternoon. It’s a reminder that amidst the headlines, our city’s compassion shows up right where it’s needed most.

Good morning, this is Lexington Local Pulse for Sunday, October twenty-sixth, twenty twenty-five. Let’s get started with the latest news from our community, where we see this weekend bringing both reminders of our city’s strength and moments that call for reflection and action.

Beginning with breaking news, Lexington Police are investigating after skeletal human remains believed to belong to a woman were found yesterday afternoon near Masterson Station Park on the thirty-one hundred block of Leestown Road. Early indications suggest the death may have been from natural causes, but the Fayette County Coroner has not yet confirmed the identity or released official findings. The police are encouraging anyone with information to step forward, as we all want closure for families and neighbors in the Masterson Station area.

Switching to public safety, it’s been a busy few days in Lexington with several notable incidents. Police are also actively investigating a confirmed homicide on Lakebow Court earlier this week, and there’s ongoing concern following a juvenile’s gunshot wound Thursday night that led to a hospital visit and another police investigation. While these incidents stand out, it’s important to remember our close-knit neighborhoods and local officers continue working for everyone’s safety.

Now let’s talk about today’s weather, because it’s shaping up to be a clear, but chilly morning—we’re starting off around thirty-five degrees, with overcast skies and no rain expected through the day, according to the Blue Grass Airport weather station. Highs will likely reach the mid to upper sixties, so while it’s brisk at sunrise, by afternoon folks heading out for errands, sports, or outdoor events should find comfortable temperatures, though a storm system is expected to move in later in the week, so enjoy the calm while we have it.

For those of us looking for work, Lexington’s job market stays strong with thousands of openings—Indeed lists over eleven thousand jobs across the city right now, from retail and warehouse roles to remote healthcare and tech positions. Interest in remote options continues, with nearly two hundred work-from-home listings, including everything from patient care advisors to electronic eligibility consultants, so whether you’re reentering the workforce or searching for a new path, there’s likely something open to fit your skills and schedule.

On the local business front, there are no major openings or closings to report today, but we notice continued interest in remote and flexible work arrangements—a sign of how the city’s economic landscape keeps adapting. As for real estate, while we don’t have fresh numbers this morning, last month’s trends showed steady demand in neighborhoods near Masterson Station and other family-friendly areas, so we expect that pattern to continue as we head into the holidays.

Turning to culture and community, it was a big sports weekend on campus, with a packed Kroger Field for the Kentucky-Tennessee football showdown last night. Tennessee pulled away with a fifty-six to thirty-four win over the Wildcats, but Big Blue Nation showed up in force, and the energy downtown was electric before kickoff. We also look ahead to Halloween week—get ready for pumpkin crafts, costume contests, and live performances at events around town, including fall festivals at Gatton Park, where families and friends can enjoy the season together.

In a note of local pride, Lexington schools continue emphasizing achievement, though we have no specific results to highlight this morning—watch for updates as competitions and academic milestones unfold in the coming weeks. And remember, as our community grows, so does our need to look out for one another—our city’s homelessness crisis is still a challenge, with advocates and officials working to provide more shelter and support as temperatures dip.

Wrapping up with a feel-good note, we’ve seen neighbors stepping up this week—whether volunteering, supporting local drives, or simply reaching out to those in need. It’s these daily actions that remind us why Lexington is a special place to call home.

Thank you for starting your morning with Local Pulse. Please subscribe to stay updated, and if you see something we should share, let us know. This has been Lexington Local Pulse. We’ll see you tomorrow with more of what’s happening in your city.

Good morning, this is Lexington Local Pulse for October 25, 2025. We're starting off with a chilly morning in Lexington, with temperatures in the low 40s and a frost advisory in place until 10 AM. Despite the cold start, we're expecting a partly cloudy day with highs reaching into the mid-60s.

In breaking news, a homicide investigation is underway on Lakebow Court after a man was found shot dead on Friday. The Lexington Police Department is seeking tips from the public and encourages anyone with information to come forward.

We also want to highlight the heroism of four good Samaritans who helped a Kentucky State Police trooper after he was shot during a traffic stop earlier this year. Jimmy Alexander, Jessica Alexander, Taylor Hall, and Adam Arnold received citations for their bravery, and it's a reminder of the community spirit that makes Lexington such a special place.

On the job front, over 584 part-time positions are available in Lexington, ranging from retail to food service. If you're looking for a more specialized role, there are openings for skilled carpenters and accountants. For those interested in real estate, there's a growing interest in Lexington as a potential investment opportunity.

In sports, we'll be keeping an eye on local school achievements and sports results. Meanwhile, if you're planning community events, remember that the weather will be mostly cloudy today, but still pleasant for outdoor activities.

Tonight, take a moment to appreciate the community's response to challenges. We're proud to call Lexington home, and we're grateful for listeners like you who tune in for the latest updates. Please subscribe to stay informed about all things Lexington.
