Good morning, this is Nashville Local Pulse for Friday, July 11th, and we hope everyone is having a great start to their day. We begin with breaking news from West Nashville where a mother was arrested overnight on Susannah Drive after allegedly shooting her teenage daughter during an argument inside their apartment. Police say the 16-year-old girl suffered a gunshot wound to her hand and was treated at Centennial Medical Center. The mother is currently being held on multiple charges, including aggravated child abuse and possession of a weapon while intoxicated. The Youth Services Division continues to investigate.Turning to traffic and city infrastructure, heads up if you’re driving near Centennial Boulevard. The Tennessee Department of Transportation is closing several ramps on Briley Parkway for concrete repairs starting tonight at 8 p.m. The closures will last through Monday morning and will impact both the east and west ramps over the next two weekends, so allow extra time for detours around Exit 26. Remember, all work is weather-dependent, but crews will be out rain or shine to keep Nashville’s roads safe.On the weather front, it's shaping up to be a classic Middle Tennessee summer day. We’re waking up to fair skies and temperatures climbing from the low 70s into the upper 80s, topping out near 89 this afternoon. Looking ahead, we can expect even warmer temperatures as the weekend arrives, with highs well into the 90s and plenty of sun.
