Today's University Park forecast
The
beautiful sunny skies of this past week will be replaced
by clouds and scattered showers today. The inclement
weather is being caused by a disturbance moving toward
Happy Valley from the South. Left over moisture will keep
clouds around here Friday as temperatures remain warm.
However, a cold front will move through late Saturday
ushering in cooler and dryer air.--Prepared by the Campus Weather Service
