10,000+ Red Light Warnings in 60 Days

Pittsburgh issued more than 10,000 warnings during the first 60 days of red light camera enforcement at two intersections: Penn and North Dallas Avenues in Point Breeze and Saw Mill Run Boulevard and Woodruff Street in Beechview.

The warning period ended Oct. 11, and drivers caught at those intersections, along with a third at Anderson and East General Robinson streets on the North Shore, now get $100 citations.

A police officer reviews each violation before a ticket is mailed, and the tickets are treated like parking infractions, with no points added to drivers’ driving records.

The city plans to install about 30 red light cameras over the next five years.

Cold Showers Could Bring Snowflakes

Showers turn colder today across Pennsylvania, with snowflakes possible in some areas as temperatures drop.

The best chance of wet snow is in the Lehigh Valley and Northeast, where Allentown has about a 70% chance of precipitation and a high near 39, while Scranton may stay in the mid-30s.

Philadelphia should see mostly rain, with highs in the low 40s. Temperatures rebound into the upper 50s and low 60s by the middle of next week.

Teacher Shares Elk Harvest With Class

Carlisle High School teacher Joshua Knisely turned his 582-pound elk harvest into a lesson for his 11th- and 12th-grade emotional support students.

Knisely was one of just 155 hunters drawn for a Pennsylvania elk license this year, out of about 47,000 applicants, he said.

Before the hunt, his class watched a Game Commission video on the history of the state’s elk herd and the conservation work that helped it recover.

Afterward, Knisely and his students spent Veterans Day cooking elk burgers, with seniors pitching in to clean, set plates, and prepare sauces.
