Good morning, this is Tucson Local Pulse for Thursday, December fourth, twenty twenty-five.We're starting this morning with some exciting news for anyone looking up at the sky tonight. Arizona is ranked second in the entire nation for viewing the Cold Moon Supermoon, which rises this evening. This is the final supermoon of twenty twenty-five, and our desert conditions give us some of the clearest skies in the country. Peak illumination happens around five fourteen this evening, and the best viewing will be around moonrise when it appears largest and most colorful. If you head out to spots like Sedona, Flagstaff's dark sky region, or even just the outskirts of town away from city lights, you're in for a real treat. It's one of the highest-rising full moons in northern skies until twenty forty-two, so this is definitely worth stepping outside for tonight.Moving to local sports, we had quite the upset in women's college basketball. Southern University's Jaguars came to Tucson and handed the previously unbeaten Arizona Wildcats a sixty-three to fifty-seven loss Tuesday night at McKale Center. It was one of the biggest road wins in Southern's program history. The Jaguars played fantastic defense, holding Arizona to just forty-one percent shooting and only twenty-three percent from three-point range. Demya Porter led Southern with sixteen points, and the bench was a huge factor, contributing thirty-five points to the upset victory.On the city development front, things continue to move forward with Project Blue. The Arizona Corporation Commission has approved a TEP agreement connected to the massive data center project. City officials and developers held a meeting this week where they made the case that the project will be water positive and won't drive up electric rates, though there's still quite a bit of discussion about transparency around the whole endeavor.Looking at what's ahead for our community, we've got the IMPACT Tucson Resource Fair happening this Saturday at Palo Verde Magnet High School. They're offering free backpacks and school materials, so if you're in need, that's a great opportunity.In state government news, Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes has been quite active since the Trump administration returned to office in January, filing lawsuits against federal actions on average about once a week. Some of those cases have had mixed results, but the state continues to position itself on the legal frontlines.Finally, Tucson just celebrated its two hundred fiftieth anniversary as a city with four new murals added downtown, each created by a different local artist. It's a beautiful way to honor our community's rich history and ongoing creative spirit.Thank you for tuning in to Tucson Local Pulse. Be sure to subscribe so you don't miss tomorrow's updates.
