Today's University Park forecast
A high
pressure system moving off the coast will be replaced by
a deepening low just to our west. This low will bring in
rain and snow to various parts of the region through
Thursday. The precipitation will last throughout the day,
so make sure you bring an umbrella. Later in the week,
the low will slide off the coast, ushering in cooler,
drier air for the beginning of spring break.--Prepared by the Campus Weather Service
