Good morning, Harrisburg. Here's your local news at a glance for Sunday, the 29th of June.

COMMUNITY NEWS

  • Volunteers in Lower Paxton Township used ground penetrating radar on June 28 to search for misplaced graves at Newside Cemetery. The radar located 23 of about 48 graves from the late 1740s to 1856, including those of war veterans, and a rededication ceremony is planned later this year.  WGAL

ENVIRONMENT NEWS

  • A cold front from the Ohio Valley will trigger scattered showers and thunderstorms this afternoon and evening in the Susquehanna Valley, with some storms expected to be strong or severe. Highs will reach the upper 80s while rising humidity makes it feel steamy—drivers should use caution as morning mist and fog lower visibility.  WGAL

GOVERNMENT NEWS

  • Government reports show that Pennsylvania held more than 350 immigrants in detention by the end of May—a level not seen in 16 years, while New Jersey detention centers saw a 451% rise in detainees since the end of April.  PennLive
