From PennLive, for tonight Thursday, June 6, 2026;
🌌 ✨ The northern lights may be visible in parts of Pennsylvania tonight and Friday due to three coronal mass ejections. Best viewing is in southern and eastern areas, away from light pollution; smartphone cameras may capture better images than the naked eye. Local conditions matter: Harrisburg is partly cloudy, which could limit visibility.

Little cows!!!!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍

Do you want to sit and pet a Highland Cow? Would you like to have your picture taken with a Highland Cow?

Well, now you can have that opportunity at our summer concert series event on Friday, June 12th, 2026. Starting around 7:00 pm that night, a local farm will be present with one of their Highland cows that you can pet and take a picture with for just $5.00 per picture. The local farm is donating a portion of each picture sold to the fire company, so come on out that night to get your picture taken with a Highland Cow.

The Highland cow pictured is NOT the actual Highland Cow that will be there, but is used as a reference photo.

Horse Drawn Carriage Signs ("Amish Buggies")
From PennDOT to Jackson Township Supervisors:

April 14, 2026
This is in response to your email dated March 5, 2026, regarding the installation of Horsedrawn Vehicle signs on Armstrong Valley Road (SR 0225) and Enders Road (SR 4001), in Jackson Township, Dauphin County.
A traffic engineering and safety study was conducted by a PennDOT. As a result of the study, Horsedrawn Vehicle signs will be installed on Armstrong Valley Road (SR 0225) and Enders Road (SR 4001). Work orders have been issued to our PennDOT Dauphin County Maintenance office to install the requested signs. Please allow 60 days for the scheduling and completion of this work.
We appreciate your concerns for safety on our state roads.
Traffic Studies/Signing Section Supervisor

March 5, 2026
The Horsedrawn Vehicles sign (W 11-14) is a sign that PennDOT installs and maintains. We will review the sign locations from the drawing you submitted. Once we verify the sign locations (they may be a little different depending on field conditions) we will create a work order and send it to our Dauphin County Maintenance Office to have the signs installed. Due to scheduling and weather delays, it may take up to 60 days for them to be ordered and installed. If you have any questions please let me know.
