Today's University Park forecast
Hello spring! The snow from this past weekend's storm will quickly disappear as high pressure will dominate our region all the way to the weekend. This means unseasonally warm daytime temperatures and cool, clear nights. The sunshine should be relatively abundant this week as there is no precipitation expected through the forecast period leading up to the first day of Spring.--Prepared by the Campus Weather Service
