Today's University Park forecast
A very typical April pattern has settled in across much of the country as little tastes of late spring are combatted with brief reminders of winter. Pleasantly warm temperatures that greeted the region yesterday will wain into cooler temperatures as we go into the Easter weekend. In the meantime, a storm system will drop down out of Canada and push through the region today bringing showers. However, come next week, the 60’s will return along with the kind of spring we all like!
