Columbus rolled into Sunday under clear skies and mid-50s temperatures, setting the stage for a mellow, early-summer kind of day. Highs are headed toward 776F with light east winds, keeping things dry and comfortable for anything from brunch patios to park runs. Skies stay mostly sunny through the afternoon before turning partly cloudy overnight, with lows near 556F.
Today And Tonight
Expect sunshine to hold the spotlight with a high near 776F and a gentle east breeze around 2 to 6 mph. Tonight, clouds creep in a bit, with a low near 556F.
The National Weather Service notes that a weak disturbance could pull some mid-level moisture over the region late Sunday night into Monday. That might squeeze out a few elevated sprinkles in isolated spots, but nothing that looks like a real rainmaker. Overall, dry weather is expected to hang on through Thursday, keeping mornings crisp and afternoons mild.
Late-Week Warmup And Weekend Storms
By late week, the temperature dial gets a solid nudge upward, with highs near 836F Thursday, around 866F Friday, and pushing into the upper 80s on Saturday as southerly flow returns. Along with the heat comes a better shot at unsettled weather.
Showers and thunderstorms grow more likely from Friday night into the weekend, and some storms could be strong, so it is smart to keep a backup indoor option for outdoor plans. Forecasters will fine tune the timing and any potential impacts as the week goes on.
