East side of Pittsburg Street at Buffalo Speedway to close Nov. 8; University Boulevard to reopen soon
The intersection is predicted to reopen in two to 3 weeks, relying on climate circumstances, based on estimates offered by town. Throughout the closure, crews will work on excavating the highway previous to placing down new pavement as a part of Part 3 of the undertaking.
In the meantime, a number of different beforehand closed sections of the highway are anticipated to reopen inside the coming days.
The east aspect of the intersection of Duke Avenue and Buffalo Speedway will reopen Nov. 8; the east aspect of the intersection of Carnegie Avenue and Buffalo Speedway will reopen Nov. 9; and the east aspect of the intersection of College Boulevard and Buffalo Speedway will reopen Nov. 11.
Part 3 of the Buffalo Speedway undertaking spans from West Holcombe Avenue to Amherst Avenue and is the ultimate phase of the broader undertaking that crews will work on earlier than its projected completion in 2023.
The general Buffalo Speedway undertaking entails making enhancements between Wroxton Street and Gramercy Avenue at a value of $23 million, which is funded partly by town and partly by the Texas Division of Transportation and federal grants.

It’s going to be a sunny day with warm temperatures throughout the Pittsburgh area.
Any Alert Days Ahead? None
Aware: A lunar eclipse will occur on Friday. Looks promising that we will be able to see it.
Today will be sunny and warmer than average by about 15 to 20 degrees. Morning temps dipped to the 30s in most communities. Noon temperatures will be in the mid-50s. Winds will be light; coming out of the southwest at around 5mph for most of the day. Today’s sunset is at 7:23.
Unlike our previous warm-ups that were brief over the past month, this time warm air is getting comfortable and will be here for the entire week. I have highs today hitting the mid-60s. I have Wednesday as the coolest day of the week right now with highs just in the mid to low 60s. The coolest afternoon will likely be on Sunday though as cool air rolls in behind a morning cold front. I am forecasting highs in the 70s for both Friday and Saturday.
Tuesday won’t be as sunny with some clouds expected for the afternoon. A shallow cold front will roll through late Tuesday followed closely by a warm front. Both are expected to come through dry, but I am putting in a 20% chance for Wednesday due to the fronts. I can’t rule out some sprinkles or a very isolated shower or two.
This week is a big one for astrologists with a lunar eclipse happening this Friday. For us, the peak of the eclipse will occur at 2:56 a.m.
The moon will turn a dark red hue, with the eclipse lasting for just over an hour. That means the moon will begin to turn red as soon as 2:25 a.m. with the effect ending around 3:25 a.m.
Our skies are looking clear during that time. I will have more on the eclipse throughout the week.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have finally landed a big fish at wide receiver after a laborious search.
Per NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, the Seattle Seahawks are trading DK Metcalf to the Steelers in exchange for their second-round pick, which sits at No. 53 overall. The teams are also swapping picks in the sixth and seventh rounds.
As part of the transaction, Pittsburgh is signing Metcalf to an extension worth $150 million over five year.
He’ll join George Pickens as the franchise’s star duo at receiver, though it remains to be seen who will be throwing them passes next season. It’s worth noting that he spent the first three years of his career playing with Russell Wilson.
Metcalf, a second-round pick out of Ole Miss in 2019, has logged 438 receptions for 6,324 yards and 48 touchdowns during his career.
In 2024, he posted 66 catches totalling 992 yards and five scores.
The Steelers were reportedly interested in Metcalf ahead of last year’s trade deadline, though they were rebuffed in their attempts to acquire him.
Now, they’ve brought in a bonafide talent at the position that they’ve so desperately craved while providing a major boost to their offense.
