Good morning, this is San Diego Local Pulse for Sunday, July 20, 2025.It’s a cloudy start to the day as we look out across the city, with highs only reaching about seventy-one degrees and lows dipping to the mid-sixties tonight. Humidity is up, so the marine layer is lingering, and we’re not likely to see much sun until late afternoon. Remember, the UV index today is very high, over ten, so if you’re heading out, especially to our beaches, make sure to grab that sunscreen. This mellow weather means all planned outdoor events, including the ongoing Pride Festival in Balboa Park, are moving forward so locals and visitors alike can enjoy festivities without the July heat wave.The city is still buzzing after yesterday’s San Diego Pride Parade, which brought thousands to Hillcrest for one of the region’s biggest celebrations of diversity. The festival continues today in Balboa Park from ten a.m. until nine tonight. Over a hundred and twenty performers are taking the stage, from local bands to nationally known acts, and there’s something for every age, with youth and family zones, a senior cool zone, and food trucks galore. Mayor Todd Gloria led the parade yesterday, joined by three openly LGBTQ plus council members, a sign of how far representation has come in San Diego.Switching gears to public safety, several incidents are on our radar this morning. ABC 10News reports evacuations in Pala Mesa were lifted late last night after crews contained a brush fire that had threatened homes near Highway 76. Firefighters will be monitoring hot spots, but the immediate danger has passed and all roads are back open. In traffic news, a tragic crash in Poway Friday afternoon claimed five lives, while up in Oceanside, two separate accidents last night sent one car into a home and another crashing into a tree on College Boulevard. Police are reminding all of us to drive with extra care, especially as summer traffic spikes with events and tourism.On the job and real estate front, hiring continues in hospitality as local resorts ramp up for Comic-Con crowds arriving next weekend. Listings in central neighborhoods like North Park and South Park are still moving quickly, but homes are sitting on the market a bit longer in suburbs like Chula Vista; the median price citywide is just under nine hundred thousand dollars. We’re also seeing a couple of new restaurants opening on University Avenue, filling vacant spaces and bringing new jobs. Meanwhile, a few coffee shops in the downtown core have quietly closed this week, citing ongoing rent and staffing challenges.In sports, the San Diego Padres are in Washington to face the Nationals after a narrow four to two loss yesterday. Pitcher Peralta kept it close, but the offense couldn’t make up the deficit. Back home, San Diego’s soccer club remains atop the Western Conference after a late-game goal by Ian Pilcher tied things up with the Vancouver Whitecaps, keeping fans’ championship hopes alive.Local schools are quiet for summer, but a Point Loma high student made headlines after taking third in a national robotics tournament, showing that our youth are still making us proud. And on a heartwarming note, a former San Diegan, now recovered from a life-threatening illness, has launched a fundraising campaign for local beach safety, giving back to our community that supported him in recovery.Thanks for tuning in to San Diego Local Pulse.
