Columbus is starting Friday with morning clouds, with temperatures reaching the upper 70s and partly sunny conditions later. The day is the opening act for a calm stretch of weather that keeps rain away through the weekend.

Friday night will dip to around 49 degrees before Saturday and Sunday bring sunny skies and highs near 70. That confirms the brighter, drier turn outlined in Thursday’s Hoodline forecast, with the weekend shaping up nicely for outdoor plans.

Cool Mornings, Easy Afternoons

The National Weather Service’s Wilmington office says northeast winds will stay light to moderate Friday. Some fog may develop around river valleys near daybreak, but widespread visibility problems are not expected, and no watches, warnings or advisories are posted for the Columbus area, according to the National Weather Service.

Rain Holds Off Until Midweek

Monday remains sunny with a high near 69, with rain chances returning by the middle of next week.

Thursday brings another chance of showers. For Friday and the weekend, a light jacket in the morning should do the trick before the afternoons settle into comfortable early-fall weather.
