WEATHER
[ Wednesday, October 15, 2003 ]
Sunny and warm.
Today's University Park forecast
The cold front that passed through the region last night will leave behind some strong winds for us to contend with today as gusts are expected to reach 45 mph. The rest of the week will remain sunny but cool, as temperatures return to a more fall like range. High pressure will move in later this week giving us some beautiful fall days to finish off the week. This weekend will bring another chance of rain as another low pressure system will move through the area.
