Each weekday morning, host Trenae Nuri will chat with people all across Philly’s diverse neighborhoods about issues that matter to you.

City Cast Philly is here for it all. It’s that energetic, informative conversation you might overhear at your neighborhood coffee shop. But with City Cast Philly, you’re always welcome to join in.

    The state just passed a $47.6 billion dollar budget. It was only two weeks late this time — not bad, by Pennsylvania standards — and set a bunch of new priorities. Spotlight PA’s capitol reporter Stephen Caruso joins City Cast Pittsburgh host Megan Harris and City Cast Philly host Trenae Nuri to talk about where the state is putting its money and what got left on the cutting room floor. We also mentioned this episode from last year about why school funding in PA isn’t fair. You can also check out City Cast Pittsburgh’s episode on school vouchers. Want some more Philly news?

What’s the deal with these heat waves, and is weather like this going to be the new normal in Philly?

See which neighborhoods in Philly are most affected by the urban heat island effect (you’ll need to select Philadelphia from the list of cities) — and how we compare to other urban areas — in these maps from Climate Central. Check out our guides on how the urban heat island effect impacts Philly, and ways to stay cool this summer. Want some more Philly news?
