Today's University Park forecast
A real taste of spring has settled in across the Northeast as temperatures pleasantly climbed into the upper 50’s yesterday. A continual warming trend will bring temperatures this weekend into the upper 70’s, perhaps even cracking the 80 degree mark on Sunday as high pressure settles in and controls fair weather for the next few days. With tomorrow’s Trout fishing season opener, hoards of anglers will be comfortable as they sit in the cool streams of Pennsylvania hoping for a catch.
