Tariffs are impacting your morning coffee. And a deep dive at U.S. Steel’s Clairton Coke Works.

Since 2021, hospitals have been required to publish prices for different services so that patients have a better idea of what care might cost. A new Pennsylvania report shows many local hospitals aren't fully complying with these rules.

The price of roasted coffee increased nearly 13% over the past year. Some local coffee retailers are beginning to feel the impact. 

The campgrounds at Raystown Lake are reopening on a phased schedule. Over the weekend, Susquehannock and Nancy’s Boat-to-Shore Campgrounds reopened, while the Seven Points Campground will reopen on Friday, September 5th.

Environmentalists across the state are working to raise awareness about the role native plants play in protecting Pennsylvania's ecosystems.

And a deep dive:

The explosion at the US Steel Clairton plant near Pittsburgh last Monday killed two workers, but it touched the lives of thousands who live nearby.
