Columbus and Central Ohio Weather

We enjoyed another mild weekend, with sunshine and some high cloudiness. Tonight will be mostly clearly, but with more clouds returning toward daybreak. Morning readings will bottom out in the mid-30s.

The weather on Monday will become windy and very mild, as a southerly flow behind high pressure to the east drives a brief shot of warm air. Afternoon temperatures will approach 70 degrees for the fourth consecutive week

A cold front trailing low pressure moving over the northern Great Lakes Monday night will trigger a band of showers that will exit the region before daybreak on Tuesday.

Seasonably cool and dry weather will arrive for the middle of the week. Highs will average in the mid- to upper 40s Tuesday through Thursday and morning lows will dip below freezing.

Showers are likely on Friday, with rain lingering on Saturday, as low pressure track across the Midwest to the Great Lakes. Colder air will likely bring a change to snow showers by early Sunday.
