[Friday,
March 23, 2001 ] Today's
University Park forecast
Enjoy the sunshine as high pressure will
provide for one day of pleasant weather before the clouds
return to Happy Valley. A cold front will bring the
chance for snow showers to the region tomorrow night
along with a return to winter-like temperatures. The cool
conditions will continue through the beginning of next
week as sunshine gradually returns to the area.

Weather Highlight
With the spring comes severe weather
season. And one of the worst places to be caught in a
severe weather situation is a mobile home. Now, federal
legislation that would offer safe shelter to mobile home
owners is getting more attention. This legislation calls
for American-made storm shelters to be built in mobile
home communities and used by everyone in the vicinity
when severe weather strikes.
