Today's University Park forecast

A cold front that moved through overnight will cause some remaining flurries in the morning. A high pressure system will build in the region bringing us the coldest weather of this winter season so far. Expect temperatures to be down in the single digits tonight and not climb out of the 20’s until the weekend. A storm will approach the region by Thursday bringing the chance of snow. The system should move out by the weekend bringing slightly warmer temperatures and partly cloudy skies for the remainder of the week.
