Today's University Park forecast
Starting today, absolutely fantastic weather conditions will dominate Pennsylvania until the next week. Following the departure of the front that has plagued the region recently with some heavy rainfall, strong high pressure in the Great Plain will extend its territory and keep Pennsylvania under full sunshine and seasonable temperatures with low humidity for this weekend and most parts of the next week. There will be a slight chance of precipitation around Tuesday.
