Good morning, this is your Asheville Local Frequency for Thursday, November 13. If you were hoping for a repeat of Tuesday’s stunning northern lights, you weren’t alone. Western North Carolina got a rare light show two nights ago, painting the sky above Asheville in vivid colors—locals turned out with cameras and awe as social media filled with dazzling night shots. Last night’s lights weren’t quite as dramatic, but stargazers still had a reason to look up, thanks to a strong geomagnetic storm, even if the intensity topped out just shy of what was predicted. The science buffs out there will appreciate why that spectacle could happen: Earth’s magnetic field played its cosmic defense, channeling solar energy into ribbons of color high above the mountains.

Meanwhile, downtown is buzzing today with a special reveal at 1 PM. Asheville Parks & Recreation welcomes everyone for the unveiling of Fluvial—a brand new public art piece. It’s set to become the latest landmark for locals and visitors alike, celebrating the currents and creativity of Asheville. Artists and city officials invite families and art lovers to gather, soak up the inspiration, and maybe meet the team behind the project. Mark your calendars and join in supporting Asheville’s vibrant arts scene.

For those eager for laughs tonight, there’s stand-up comedy heating up local stages with some fresh faces from coast to coast. If you’re up for a night out, you can catch Geoffrey Asmus performing his signature smart, offbeat sets. He’s appeared in major festivals and late-night acts, so you can expect sharp writing and plenty of crowd interaction. Arrive early to snag good seats, as shows often fill quickly when these viral comics hit town.

Sports fans, take note: Asheville is making history on the greens as the PGA Tour returns to the Blue Ridge Mountains for the first time in 86 years. This FedEx Cup Fall event tees off today, bringing top players, enthusiastic spectators, and plenty of buzz back to our region’s rolling fairways. Local clubs and restaurants are marking the occasion with viewing parties and golf-inspired menus, so even if you can’t swing a ticket, you can still join in the spirit.

The hemp industry is a hot topic this week. Asheville’s many CBD shops are monitoring new federal regulations that could impact product sales. A recent government decision to redefine THC limits may shake up what’s offered on local shelves. Shop owners and customers are watching closely to see how these changes will affect Asheville’s role as a hub for wellness products.

If you’re looking for more to do, remember to check your neighborhood calendars for open mic nights, gallery strolls, and pop-up markets. There’s never a dull Thursday in Asheville, whether you’re exploring South Slope breweries or strolling the River Arts District to catch late-autumn murals and music.

This has been Asheville Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.

Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
