Today's University Park forecast
After an early chill last week, which featured the first frost of the season, it looks like some warmer weather is in store for State College. An area of high pressure will be in control for most of this week. Currently, this high is to the west ushering in cool air in from the northwest. Over the course of the week, this system will edge toward the coast turning winds southwest allowing warm air to affect the region. High temperatures should increase steadily throughout the week.
