Mifflinburg, Pa. — A 69-year-old Lewisburg woman was taken to Evangelical Community Hospital after a three-vehicle crash involving two Peterbilt trucks on Ridge Road in Limestone Township, according to state police at Milton. An oversize-load Peterbilt with a flatbed trailer driven by Duane M. Dutter, 45, of Sparta, Wisconsin, was stopped in the westbound lane of Ridge Road near Dice Road at 8:30 a.m. on Nov. 5 to let eastbound traffic pass, with flags and yellow warning lights on, police said. Joy E. Weaver’s 2008 Ford F-350 was stopped behind it. A westbound 2013 Peterbilt driven by Aaron D. Nolt, 22, of Lewisburg, failed to stop and rear-ended the Ford, pushing it into the back of the oversize load’s trailer, police said. Weaver was injured and taken to the hospital, police say. Nolt and Dutter were not hurt. Troopers gave Nolt a written warning for following too closely.

The Lycoming Regional Police Department (LRPD) arrested 28-year-old Dakota J.

What to know about adenovirus, other viruses circulating around Penn State campus

Pennsylvania’s Department of Health is monitoring an “ adenovirus outbreak ” on Penn State’s campus. And, although campus numbers appear to be similar to last year, the university issued a news release last week so those with underlying medical conditions know to take precautions. Adenoviruses are a common group of viruses that typically cause flu-like symptoms, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention , and people with weakened immune systems or cardiac/respiratory disease are at risk of becoming seriously ill. According to the state DOH, it first learned of Penn State’s increase in influenza-like illness through a nationwide system ( ILINet ) that tracks healthcare visits for flu-like symptoms. With more students seeking care at University Health Services (UHS), testing then detected an increased spate of adenovirus and other respiratory viruses involving students. “When a school, college, university, or other institution experiences more cases of illness than would normally be expected, it may be considered an outbreak and should be reported to public health,” DOH spokesperson Eli Steiker-Ginzberg told the Centre Daily Times in an email. “Monitoring outbreaks helps public health officials understand which viruses are circulating and provide recommendations to protect people at higher risk for severe

Meteor shower may bring ‘incredible fireballs' over PA. Here's when to look up

An upcoming meteor shower peaking over Pennsylvania soon is known for producing bright fireballs, and the ideal viewing period will be longer than usual. The Northern Taurids peak around Wednesday to Thursday , but a longer peak means any night the second week of November will offer good viewing opportunities, AccuWeather meteorologist Brian Lada told the Centre Daily Times in a recent email. “Unlike most meteor showers that peak over the course of one or two nights, both of the Taurids have longer, drawn out peaks that last about a week,” Lada said. The Southern Taurids peaked in early November. Because the Northern Taurids have a longer peak, Lada advised stargazers to choose the night with the best weather to stargaze. State College stargazers can expect clear skies Tuesday night before patchy fog begins after 1 a.m. The rest of the week is expected to bring mostly cloudy skies with some rain in the evenings, according to the National Weather Service. “The Taurids are also known for producing fireballs, which are incredibly bright meteors that can briefly be as bright as a full moon,” Lada said. “Not every meteor will be one of these incredible fireballs, but it adds intrigue

Selinsgrove, Pa. — A Selinsgrove man was sentenced in federal prison for trafficking several types of hard drugs in Snyder and Union counties, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania announced.
