FORECAST DISCUSSION:
Happy Thursday!
We start the day off on a chilly note, with freeze alerts in effect. We do start to warm up today, though, with highs into the lower 60s this afternoon, under mainly sunny skies. Winds will remain light.
For Friday, clouds increase gradually throughout the day, and we'll be a bit breezy. That southerly wind will send high temps into the middle 70s in Columbus. We'll be dry throughout the day, before showers move in Friday night into Saturday morning.
The bulk of Saturday's showers arrive during the morning, with very widely scattered shower/storm chances later in the day. Mainly dry overall. We will be windy, however, with highs in the upper 70s.
Less windy, but still breezy for Sunday, with partly cloudy skies, and just an isolated storm chance. Highs warm into the low to middle 80s for Sunday.
Monday starts dry, then we'll see the chance for showers and storms during the back half of the day and overnight. Highs stick in the lower 80s.
