[ Wednesday April 16, 2003 ]
Partly sunny; Increasing clouds
Today's University Park forecast

A cold front pushing into the state from the north will bring an increasing amount of cloudiness throughout the day today. Temperatures will remain unseasonable as winds from the west-southwest continue to advect warm air into Pennsylvania ahead of this cold front. Showers are likely tonight as the front moves through, signaling the arrival of a cooler period which will last through the end of the week. Rain showers will persist into Friday, with temperatures rebounding into the 60s for the Easter weekend.
