Episode Synopsis

Good morning, this is San Diego Local Pulse for Saturday, November 15, 2025. We wake up this morning to widespread showers across San Diego, as a powerful Pacific storm moves through, bringing heavy rain and gusty winds to much of the county. The National Weather Service has placed us under a flood watch until 10 tonight, cautioning everyone to watch for pooling water and slick roads, especially in low-lying areas. Crews have already been out, clearing storm drains along Chollas Creek and in Mountain View and Southcrest, trying to keep ahead of flood risk. Expect rain to taper off by late evening, but unsettled weather with scattered showers lingers through Sunday and even into early next week, so best to have that rain jacket handy.In breaking news, a dramatic police arrest in Grant Hill is making headlines this morning. Cell phone video captured San Diego police detaining a suspect wanted for a violent assault on a bicyclist near 30th and Imperial. The suspect, Rosales, was apprehended after a struggle and now faces charges of attempted murder and battery. SDPD says physical force and a taser were used after the suspect did not comply, and the investigation into the officers’ actions is ongoing. Meanwhile, the Sheriff’s Department responded to a predawn burglary in the 12400 block of Oak Creek Drive. Deputies arrived within minutes and arrested two suspects at the scene, recovering a stash of stolen electronics. No injuries reported in either incident, but we encourage everyone to stay vigilant, especially as the early darkness of winter sets in.On the jobs front, the San Diego Workforce Partnership is celebrating the opening of a new career center in Chula Vista, aiming to help local job seekers as the regional job market holds steady despite recent tech contractions. There’s good news for the local tech scene: San Diego’s cyber cluster continues to grow, now valued at over four billion dollars and supporting thousands of high-skill jobs. General Dynamics NASSCO just landed a massive one point seven billion dollar Navy contract, securing hundreds of shipbuilding roles along Harbor Drive. Meanwhile, Novartis opened a new ten thousand square foot facility in Carlsbad, bringing dozens of biotech positions to the North County area.In real estate, San Diego State is pushing ahead with the Mission Valley Innovation District, a transformative project that will introduce over four thousand six hundred new residential units near Snapdragon Stadium, with ten percent set aside as affordable housing. Home prices across the city remain high, but newer inventory is set to ease pressure, especially for first-time buyers.Turning to our schools, UC San Diego continues to gain national attention for both its research and the challenges brought by a wave of students needing extra math support, a trend seen across California. Meanwhile, local sports brings a big win for San Diego FC, who are advancing to the Western Conference Semifinals. And Padres fans, get ready, as team legend Craig Stammen steps in as the new manager, hoping to spark a turnaround next season.For healthcare news, Sharp Memorial has become the first local hospital to offer a groundbreaking new cancer treatment, bringing hope to oncology patients throughout the region. Meanwhile, nearly six thousand Sharp nurses are set to strike in less than two weeks, with negotiations ongoing regarding pay and sick leave policies.On a lighter note, the USA Pickleball National Championships are now in full swing at Barnes Tennis Centre, bringing visitors from across the country to Point Loma. More community events are coming up: the BlueTech Month Ocean Enterprise Day on November twentieth and the Cali-Baja Business Summit just around the corner. Nonprofits like Feeding San Diego are also ramping up meal distribution efforts ahead of the holiday season, boosted this week by a two hundred fifty thousand dollar donation from Blue Shield, expected to provide over half a million meals.Before we wrap up, let’s celebrate a feel-good community story: volunteers across San Diego are stepping up, helping prepare care packages for the more than one hundred thousand military families who call our region home.Thanks for tuning in.
