Apex is waking up to a crisp start this October, with clouds lingering from overnight rain and a cool breeze keeping temperatures in the low 70s, a touch below the usual for this time of year, according to ABC11’s weather team. The rain finally moved out around midmorning, and with the sun breaking through, humidity is dropping, making for comfortable conditions across town. Winds are still gusting up to 30 mph at times, especially near the coast, but inland it’s just a refreshing breeze. Over at Apex High School, last night’s big football matchup ended in a thrilling 24-21 victory over rival Middle Creek, thanks to a last-minute touchdown drive by the Cougars. The stadium was packed despite the drizzle, and team spirit was as strong as ever. Cross country reports are still coming in, but early word is several personal bests were set at the Apex Friendship Invitational. Meanwhile, the pollen count is running in the medium range, with fall weeds and mold spores in the mix—good news for those with mild allergies, but keep those tissues handy if you’re sensitive. Air quality in Apex remains good, according to local monitors, with low levels of pollutants and plenty of fresh air to take in during outdoor activities.
On the civic front, news broke about potential cuts to North Carolina’s Medicaid reimbursement rates, which could have ripple effects for healthcare providers in Apex and across Wake County. These cuts are set to start today, and while the focus is statewide, local clinics and hospitals are bracing for possible changes in services and coverage. For now, life goes on as usual—neighbors are enjoying the newly reopened Fern Loop Trail at Apex Nature Park after repairs, and the ongoing closure of Olive Chapel Road between Ashley Downs Drive and Patterson Grove Road remains in effect due to that stubborn sinkhole from heavy August rains.
