Minneapolis Local Pulse: Spring Warmth, Road Repairs, and Hunter Hayes Tonight
Good morning, this is Minneapolis Local Pulse for Sunday, April 12. We kick off with the weather shaking things up after yesterdays cloudy 50s and overnight rain. Those showers cleared out early, so were looking at a steamy jump to near 82 degrees today with south-southwest winds at 15 to 20 miles per hour, gusting to 35. Perfect for outdoor plans around Lake Calhoun, but hold the kites near the lakes if winds pick up. Expect more rain tomorrow, so pack light for evening walks on Nicollet Mall.
Over at City Hall, council members just greenlit 20 million for pothole repairs on Hennepin Avenue and Lyndale, easing our daily commutes just in time for spring traffic. That means smoother rides to work or the farmers market.
In new business buzz, a trendy coffee spot opened on Eat Street at Chicago Avenue, drawing crowds with local roasts, while a longtime diner on West Broadway announced its closure after 40 years, shifting focus to catering.
Tonights big cultural draw is country star Hunter Hayes at the Fine Line on North 5th Street, with Franklin Jonas opening at 8 PM, K102 style. Music lovers, grab tickets fast. Also, head to The Hook and Ladder Theater on Minnehaha Avenue for the Southside Student Mutual-Aid Matinee Fundraiser from 1 to 6 PM, featuring The Riff Rangers and local poets supporting families hit by ICE actions.
Jobs are heating up too, with about 5,000 openings posted last week in healthcare and tech around the University of Minnesota area. Real estate sees median home prices holding steady at 375,000 dollars, up slightly from last month per recent listings.
Quick school shoutout: South Highs basketball team clinched the city championship yesterday, 65 to 62. And for a feel-good lift, neighbors rallied to restore the mural at Powderhorn Park after winter damage, unveiling it community-style.
On public safety, MPD reports a carjacking arrest near Uptown on Hennepin last night, with no injuries, and a theft alert for bikes around Dinkytown. Stay vigilant, folks.
Upcoming, catch free pianos on parade downtown Tuesday via the Mpls Downtown Council.
