RIGHT NOW WE ARE FOLLOWING A BIG BACKUP ON ROUTE 30 IN LANCASTER COUNTY NEAR COLUMBIA BECAUSE OF AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS HAPPENING ON THE EASTBOUND LANES OF 30 AND YOU CAN SEE IT IS REALLY SLOW GOING THERE. IN THAT STRETCH OF 30 PEOPLE TRYING TO GET OFF TO AVOID THIS BACKUP. YOU SEE NOW STRETCHING INTO WRIGHTSVILLE, YORK COUNTY, ALL ACROSS THE BRIDGE BECAUSE OF THIS ACCIDENT. ALSO, IF YOU LOOK IN WHERE COLUMBIA IS RIGHT NOW, YOU SEE THAT ORANGE BOX PEOPLE ARE EVEN TRYING TO GET AROUND THROUGH COLUMBIA TO AVOID THIS MESS. AND FOR 62 ALSO HAS BACKUPS. SO IF YOU\u2019RE HEADING THIS WAY, PLEASE AVOID 30 AT COLUMBIA. OTHERWISE THE TRAFFIC IS MOVING. WELL. OTHER PARTS OF THE SUSQUEHANNA VALLEY. GOOD MORNING. I\u2019M GABRIEL THOMAS LIVE HERE IN DOWNTOWN HARRISBURG, AND THE CITY SAYS RECENTLY MINERS HAVE BEEN CAUSING ISSUES IN THE CITY\u2019S RESTAURANT ROW AFTER HOURS. TO FIX THAT, THEY PLAN TO HAVE A PRESS CONFERENCE TODAY TO ANNOUNCE DETAILS ABOUT AN ENHANCED CURFEW. THAT PRESS CONFERENCE WILL BE AT 10:00 THIS MORNING. WE\u2019LL UPDATE YOU ONLINE AND ON AIR.

A GRANT PAID FOR THE CREATION OF THAT APP, AND THE DAUPHIN COUNTY SHERIFF\u2019S OFFICE SAYS IT GOT THE IDEA FROM THE YORK COUNTY SHERIFF\u2019S OFFICE, WHICH HAS A SIMILAR APP. A TRACTOR TRAILER STOLEN FROM DAUPHIN COUNTY WITH $400,000 WORTH OF PINE-SOL ON IT HAS BEEN FOUND IN NEW JERSEY, BUT THAT PINE-SOL IS GONE. THE TRUCK WAS STOLEN FROM WEST HANOVER TOWNSHIP AUGUST 3RD. IT WAS FOUND FIVE DAYS LATER, ABANDONED ON INTERSTATE 80, IN SADDLE BROOK, NEW JERSEY. OUR FORECAST THIS MORNING, STARTING OUT WITH SUNSHINE IN MANY SPOTS. THERE\u2019S STILL A LITTLE BIT OF PATCHY FOG, BUT IT\u2019S NOT AS WIDESPREAD AS IT WAS EARLIER THIS MORNING. STILL SEEING SOME REDUCED VISIBILITY IN PARTS OF MIFFLIN AND JUNIATA COUNTIES. CURRENT TEMPERATURES 74. IN HARRISBURG. GOOD MORNING YORK, 6764 DEGREES IN LEWISTOWN. AND OUR DEW POINTS HAVE COME DOWN EVER SO SLIGHTLY. IT\u2019S STILL WARM AND HUMID, BUT IT\u2019S NOT AS TROPICAL AS IT WAS EARLIER IN THE WEEK. REASON WHY COLD FRONT CAME THROUGH YESTERDAY. HIGH PRESSURE IS BUILDING SOUTH AND THAT\u2019S HELPING TO BREAK DOWN THE HUMIDITY JUST A LITTLE BIT. STILL GOING TO BE HOT AND HUMID TODAY WITH A HIGH UP NEAR 90 AND A STRAY SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM TONIGHT WE\u2019RE DOWN TO 70 WITH INCREASING CLOUDS. TOMORROW CLOUDS, THEN SUNSHINE 88 WILL BE THE HIGH AND I STILL CAN\u2019T RULE OUT A STRAY SHOWER OR THUNDERSTORM. ON SATURDAY. WE\u2019LL TAKE A LOOK AT NEXT WEEK\u2019S FORECAST COMING UP. NOW TO AN UPDATE ON PLANS TO LAY OFF 50 WORKERS AT THE YORK COUNTY PRISON. THE PRISON IS MOVING ON FROM ITS CURRENT MEDICAL PROVIDER AND BRINGING IN A NEW ONE. PRIME CARE MEDICAL HAS BEEN THE COMPANY\u2019S MAIN CONTRACTOR, BUT THAT DEAL EXPIRES SEPTEMBER 30TH. THIS WEEK, THE YORK COUNTY PRISON BOARD APPROVED THE COMPANY MEDICO AS THE NEW PROVIDER. THAT DEAL STARTS OCTOBER 1ST AND LASTS THROUGH 2027. THE STEELTON-HIGHSPIRE SCHOOL DISTRICT IN DAUPHIN COUNTY IS WORKING TO GET A NEW FOOTBALL FIELD AT A FUNDRAISING EVENT LAST NIGHT, THE DISTRICT ANNOUNCED IT HAS RAISED MORE THAN $123,000 JUST IN THE PAST WEEK. EARLIER THIS YEAR, IT WAS RULED THAT WAR VETERANS MEMORIAL FIELD IN STEELTON WAS NOT SAFE TO PLAY ON ANYMORE, MEANING THE TEAM WILL HAVE TO PLAY THEIR HOME GAMES ON OTHER FIELDS OF OTHER SCHOOLS THIS SEASON. HERE\u2019S YOUR TEN DAY FORECAST. TODAY. TOMORROW, EVEN SUNDAY. WE ARE JUST AROUND OR VERY CLOSE TO 90 DEGREES, SO WE CONTINUE TO SWELTER IN OUR HEAT AND HUMIDITY HERE THIS WEEK. ISOLATED STORM CHANCES NEXT THREE DAYS NOW NEXT WEEK. IT LOOKS LIKE WE HAVE BETTER STORM CHANCES TUESDAY AND WEDNES\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
