Today's University Park forecast
Cool and stable air from high pressure in Canada will dominate the region for the next couple days, allowing sunny skies and cool temperatures to prevail. Temperatures will remain below seasonal averages. This air mass will slowly retreat to the north, allowing some clouds and disturbances to enter Pennsylvania on Thursday. Some thunderstorm activities are possible including heavy rainfalls. These wet weather conditions will continue throughout the weekend.
