We start today with weather on everyone’s mind. Our area saw scattered overnight showers, but skies are clearing as we head into the weekend. The National Weather Service in Albuquerque reminds us to expect warm, partly cloudy weather today with highs in the upper 80s, and there’s just a slight chance of afternoon storms. That’s a relief after what we’ve seen in nearby parts of New Mexico—just this week, the mountain village of Ruidoso found itself rebuilding again after flash floods swept through, just one year after its devastating wildfires. Floodwaters on the Rio Ruidoso set a record, rising over 20 feet in a matter of hours. Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham is requesting federal disaster help, and emergency crews have wrapped up dozens of water rescues. Albuquerque’s own city officials are reminding us to look out for scams targeting flood relief donations. Councilor Dan Champine is urging everyone to verify charity credentials before offering help.
Turning to City Hall, Councilor Klarissa Peña is calling for more transparency after an ICE incident at the Walmart on I-40 and Coors left one man seriously injured. Peña wants to see more clarity from ICE, especially regarding enforcement actions in public spaces and the policies of retailers when these incidents occur. She’s meeting with local businesses to ensure everyone’s rights are respected and that residents of all backgrounds feel safe across Albuquerque.
Our crime report today covers several stories. The Bernalillo County Sheriff’s Office has charged James Lucero, age 37, with murder in the beating death of his mother Shirley Lovato, a tragic incident that has shaken the South Valley community. In another case, an Albuquerque mother and her son were sentenced yesterday for using Instagram and a 3D printer to traffic illegal machine gun conversion devices. This serves as a reminder of the ongoing challenges local law enforcement faces as technology and crime increasingly intersect.
For our job market update, summer typically brings seasonal hiring, especially in hospitality and construction. Local listings show about 2,200 jobs open citywide, with demand up for trades and healthcare roles. In real estate, home prices around Albuquerque have stabilized after a steep rise earlier this year, with the median selling price now hovering just under 350,000 dollars. New apartment developments are underway downtown and near the University area, aiming to ease the squeeze for renters.
Last night in sports, the Albuquerque Isotopes edged out Round Rock 3 to 2 in extra innings over in Texas. Our club stays on the road for a few more days, so let’s cheer them on from home.
Looking ahead, the Downtown Growers Market at Robinson Park is happening tomorrow, and the annual Route 66 Summerfest kicks off Saturday evening along Central Avenue with live music, food trucks, and family activities.
In education news, several APS high school robotics teams just returned from a national competition, bringing home top ten finishes and lots of local pride.
And for today’s feel-good story, a group of Nob Hill neighbors rallied together to fix up Hyder Park’s playground after a bout of vandalism, collecting donations and doing the repairs themselves. It’s another example of the spirit that keeps this city strong.
