FORECAST DISCUSSION:
Now that the rain has cleared Central Ohio, we will continue to see a mass of cold air move in the area. The cold front that passed over us will keep temperatures well below normal for this time of year. Highs will struggle to make it to the 40 degree mark. Skies will stay mainly cloudy for most of the day, but some clearing will start by the afternoon. Expect breezy conditions to continue with a north wind blowing at 15-20 mph.
Tonight two things will happen. One, clouds will continue breaking up and eventually skies will be clear. Two, wind speeds will start to come down. The clear skies and colder air will drop our low temperatures into the mid 20s. By tomorrow morning we will wake up to wind chill temps in the mid teens..
Tomorrow will bring a lot more sunshine and calmer conditions. Winds will be light. Temperatures will be a little warmer, but still a bit below average. Highs will top off in the upper 40s. We can expect the mainly clear skies to continue into the night. Lows Sunday night won't be nearly as cold, only dropping into the mid 30s.
Clouds will begin to increase on Monday with warmer air moving in. Tuesday will bring another round of rain showers along a cold front to Central Ohio. Those showers will linger into Wednesday with more mild air. The end of the work week will be sunny with more seasonable temperatures.
