Today's University Park forecast
At last it is starting to feel a lot more like spring across central Pennsylvania as temperatures are returning to near average for this time of year. However, it is also starting to feel a lot like April as well as a series of rainy days sets up for in the next few days. The warmer temperatures combined with the normally active springtime weather pattern will parade a series of rainstorms across the region as we head into April. Come friday, we may even see our first official spring thunderstorm!
