Mostly cloudy with sct. shwrs and T’storms
Today's University Park forecast
A stationary front that has stalled across the region will keep the weather unsettled for today. As waves of low pressure develop along the boundary, showers will develop. A rumble of thunder is also possible. However, expect a break in the action Saturday as one system pulls out ahead of short-lived ridge of high pressure. This ridge quickly moves out as another trough builds in, signalling the return of an active pattern and cooler temperatures.
