Today's University Park forecast
.A rain maker on the Missouri-Illinois border will propagate eastward by tonight to Happy Valley. Though showers will be on the light side, they will grow in intensity on Friday. The cold weather of the past few days will retreat to the north as a ridge over the Western states makes its way east. The normal spring-like temperatures for this time of year will be surpassed as readings in many locales will be in the mid to upper fifties by the weekend. The weekend will be clear and rain-free.
