Sunny
Today's University Park forecast
Sunny skies and warm temperatures will prevail for the next couple days as a high pressure in the Atlantic pumps warm air into the region. Clouds will increase tomorrow night in the wake of a low pressure system approaching Pennsylvania from the Great Plain, which will produce showers over the region Sunday. There will be some lingering clouds behind this system for the next couple days. Following the departure of this disturbance, cool and stable air from Canada will dominate.
