Today's University Park forecast
After a relatively calm weekend, a low pressure pressure system looks to stir things up the middle of this week. Prior to its arrival, State College will experience periods of light rain and drizzle with temperatures slghtly higher than seasonal levels. The aforementioned system’s presence will be marked by heavier rain, and stonger winds. At this time, the storm looks like it will stall over the Mid-Atlantic, allowing for an easterly flow laden with clouds and continued showers.
