Cloudy with rain showers
Today's University Park forecast
Rain, wind, and a few thunderstorms will be the story for the first day of class. The remnants of Hurricane Katrina will move through the Eastern Ohio Valley during the day today. There will be a possibility of torrential downpours and gusty winds. Showers and occasional downpours will remain likely through tomorrow afternoon. Flooding is a possible concern as we may receive copious amount of rainfall in short periods of time. Skies will clear rapidly as Katrina races northeastward. Expect much more pleasant conditions for Thursday and Friday with high temperatures in the upper 70s to low 80s.
