Cloudy with rain showers
Today's University Park forecast
Relatively strong thunderstorms plagued parts of the Ohio Valley and most of Pennsylvania yesterday as a low pressure system eased eastward. This system will continue to produce scattered thunderstorms early this morning and will meander into the southern and eastern tier of the state by afternoon. A few rumbles are likely tomorrow due to warm, moist air mass still lingering in the area. Unseasonably cool temperatures will develop as a result of a potent cold front. Warmer, more pleasant weather is in store for the weekend however, as high pressure ushers the clouds out of the area.
