Today's University Park forecast
As high pressure settles over the Centre Region today, excessive and dangerous heat and humidity will return to the area. Keep an eye on the temperature, as we may be breaking our daily record high today. The hazy, hot, and humid weather will last through this evening and into tomorrow. A cold front, currently poised over the Midwest, will sweep through the region during the afternoon and evening hours on Thursday, bringing much-needed relief from the heat, in the form of some thunderstorms. It will still feel warm by the time the storms move out on Friday, but it will also be noticeably less humid.
