Fort Worth Local Pulse: Arts Festival Weekend and Spring Weather Updates
from Fort Worth Local Pulse · host Inception Point AI
Good morning, this is Fort Worth Local Pulse for Sunday, April 19. We start with the weather shaping our day. Mostly cloudy skies this morning bring a 20 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms, but we will see mostly sunny conditions this afternoon with highs in the mid 60s and north winds keeping it cooler. No major impacts on plans, though grab a light jacket for early errands around Sundance Square. Expect similar tomorrow, with upper 70s and a 50 percent chance of storms overnight, some packing heavy rain. Downtown buzzes as the Main Street Arts Festival kicks off today, free and family-friendly across 18 blocks from the Convention Center to the Tarrant County Courthouse. We have art, live music, food trucks, and drinks drawing crowds all weekend, perfect for shaking off the clouds. City Hall approved a new traffic calming plan on West 7th Street yesterday, adding speed bumps and crosswalks to cut accidents near local shops and ease daily commutes for us drivers and walkers alike. New business news: Cowtown BBQ opened its second spot on Berry Street in the Near Southside, firing up brisket and ribs that already have lines forming, while the old Starbucks at Hulen and Berry closed for a revamp into a drive-thru only. Jobs look steady, with about 500 openings posted last week on sites like Indeed, rounded up from healthcare at JPS and tech roles near Texas Christian University. Real estate heats up too, median home prices around 350,000 dollars, up 5 percent, with hot sales in Wedgwood neighborhoods. North Crowleys high school soccer team won their district playoff 2 to 1 Friday, advancing to regionals, and Trimble Tech debate club took state honors in forensics. Crime report from the past day stays calm: Fort Worth police arrested two in a residential burglary on Altamesa Boulevard, recovering stolen goods, with no injuries and heightened patrols around there for our peace of mind. Looking ahead, catch the community cleanup at Trinity Park Tuesday, join us for free yoga at the Botanic Garden Wednesday. And a feel-good note: Neighbors rallied to rebuild a tornado-damaged playground at Worth Heights Park, opening fully yesterday with kids laughing on new swings, thanks to local volunteers.
