Columbus woke Tuesday to clear skies and temperatures in the low 40s, but the jacket weather will not last. Sunshine should carry the city to a high near 71 degrees with no rain and only a light northeast breeze, setting up an unusually easy October day.
Sunny, Dry Days Take Over
The calm pattern continues Wednesday and Thursday, with sunny skies and highs near 70. Overnight lows will dip to about 44 Tuesday night and 42 Wednesday night, so early risers will still want a layer before the afternoon warmth arrives.
Last Week’s Weather Whiplash Fades
This is a notable reset from last Thursday’s forecast, when Hoodline’s earlier forecast called for storms, gusty winds and a frost threat later in the weekend. The latest outlook from the National Weather Service’s Wilmington office keeps high pressure in place, with no watches, warnings or advisories listed for Ohio.
Cool Mornings, Comfortable Afternoons
Friday and Saturday ease back to highs near 67, with lows around 41 and 43. The forecast stays dry through Saturday—good news for errands, walks and outdoor plans that do not require an umbrella.
Weekend Ends On A Mild Note
Sunday rebounds to around 71 degrees under mostly sunny skies, followed by another mostly sunny day near 71 on Monday. Sunday night turns partly cloudy with a low near 47, so the forecast’s biggest challenge may be remembering which jacket you left in the car.
