[Thursday,
Jan. 25, 2001 ] Today's University Park forecast
After yesterday’s milder conditions, Happy Valley
will return to a winter chill. The passage of a cold
front last night will usher in cold and blustery
conditions, but high pressure building in behind the
front will bring afternoon sunshine today. Snow showers
may arrive on Saturday as a disturbance moves through the
area, but look forward to some sunshine by the end of the
weekend.--Prepared by the Campus Weather Service
