Charles, After a little more research, this is probably a Harnessed Tiger Moth - Apantesis phalerata, tho without seeing the underwings, it is not certain.

Charles, You have a tiger moth at your front porch. The very hairy larva feed on many plants and common weeds. There are many species of these tiger moths and it is challenging to tell them apart as the patterns of the wings vary by gender. They are common throughout the easter 2/3rds of the US. It is not uncommon to have them come to lights at night. Enjoy the bright colors!
