Today's University Park forecast

Thursday looks like it will be a pretty nice day with the sun peaking out for a little while. A low pressure system will then move to the south of the state Thursday night bring some rain. Temperatures will drop into the 40s on Friday with the rain continuing throughout the day. As the low pressure system moves off the coast, the region will see temperatures starting to rise but Saturday will be a bit windy. Sunday and Monday the area will see seasonal temperatures once again and hopefully this time winter decides to stay away till next year..
