WEATHER
[ Friday, February 20, 2004 ]
Mostly cloudy with scattered flurries
Today's University Park forecast
A low pressure system tracking from the mid-west through the Great Lakes will begin to spread rain from west to east late in the day today. As that system pulls off to the northeast, colder air will funnel in behind it and eventually change the rain to snow showers by Saturday afternoon. Temperatures will be on the mild side as southerly winds bring in some warmer air ahead of the system. That system exits for Sunday with a few leftover clouds. Monday looks mild and pleasant.
