  • Summary

  • Good morning, this is Charlotte Local Pulse for Wednesday, November 27, 2024. We're starting off the day with some exciting news about tonight's 78th Annual Novant Health Thanksgiving Eve Parade. The parade will step off at 5:30 PM on Tryon Street in Uptown Charlotte and will air live on WCCB Charlotte and Bahakel Entertainment starting at 6:00 PM. This year's parade promises to be a spectacular event with traditional favorites like floats, balloons, marching bands, and performers from across the region and nation. A new addition this year is "cARTs," a showcase of Charlotte's artistic imagination where local creatives will turn vehicles into rolling, illuminated masterpieces.

    In other news, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department is conducting a homicide investigation in the 1400 block of Tom Hunter Road in the North Tryon Division. Detectives are working to gather more information, and we'll keep you updated as more details become available.

    Looking at the job market, there haven't been any major hiring announcements or layoffs in the past few days. However, we do know that the unemployment rate in Charlotte has been steadily improving over the past year.

    In real estate news, there haven't been any notable commercial or residential property sales in the past few days. However, we do know that the median home price in Charlotte is around $340,000, with inventory levels remaining relatively low.

    From city hall, there haven't been any significant decisions that affect daily life in the past few days. However, we do know that the city is working to improve public transportation, with new developments like the recently opened concourse at Charlotte Douglas International Airport.

    The weather today is expected to be mostly cloudy with a high of 58 degrees. Tonight's parade should be a great event, with clear skies and cool temperatures.

    In new business activity, we're seeing some exciting openings and expansions around the city. The new concourse at Charlotte Douglas International Airport features new eateries and special glass installations.

    Looking ahead to the next few days, we have some great community events lined up. Tonight's Thanksgiving Eve Parade is a must-see, and we're also looking forward to some holiday markets and festivals around the city.

    In local school achievements, we're proud to recognize the hard work of our students and teachers. While we don't have any specific achievements to report today, we're always excited to hear about the great things happening in our schools.

    In a feel-good community story, a local community is raising money to help a cow get a bovine friend. It's a heartwarming reminder of the kindness and generosity of our community.

    Finally, in today's crime report, we want to remind everyone to stay safe and aware of their surroundings. The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department is working hard to keep our community safe, and we appreciate their efforts.

    This has been Charlotte Local Pulse. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
