Today's University Park forecast
After a short prelude of summer this weekend, expect today to be the last showing of well above average temperatures. A cold front will approach late today into tonight bringing a slight chance for some rain showers. The noticeable change will be the air as the front will promote more seasonable temperatures for the remainder of the week. A series of short wave systems will continue to move through the Commonwealth until the end of the week giving us a continued risk of rain showers.
