[Monday,
Feb. 12, 2001 ] Today's University Park
forecast
The cool, sunny weekend weather
will yield to milder, cloudier conditions with occasional
drizzle this week as high pressure slides off the
Atlantic coast. A storm system will approach the area to
end the week, but little rain is expected to end the dry
spell that has taken hold in State College. Since
December 1, less than half the normal precipitation has
fallen in Happy Valley.
