Here's your local news at a glance for Friday, the 12th of September.
Good morning, Pasco.
💼 Business
Lindsey Myhre became STCU’s first female CEO after joining in 2000 and working her way up to lead more than 1,050 employees and serve over 300,000 members—she now focuses on expanding Tri-Cities operations with a fourth branch opening in October and introducing new technology like AI while keeping a human touch. Her appointment marks a historic milestone as she champions a culture of curiosity and community support.
🌲 Environment
At Hanford, cleanup will continue until 2086 and crews use new LiDAR technology — which creates 3D models of reactor storage enclosures — to check for safety issues.
📰 Finance
Mortgage rates fell to an 11-month low of 6.46% last week—prompting some Pasco homeowners to refinance while others wait for even lower rates.
Experts say the surge in refinancing comes after a weak job market and expectations of future Fed rate cuts.
🏥 Health
A new study found that people with atrial fibrillation living in a food desert had more than double the risk of stroke and almost four times the chance of early death—researchers analyzed over 1,500 patients to link limited food access with these health risks.
