Columbus and Central Ohio Weather
Cloudy skies persisted with another day of mild temperatures in the mid-40s, though an easterly breeze made it feel chilly when rain arrived late this afternoon.
A low-pressure system will move from the Tennessee to the upper Ohio Valley tonight, with a coastal storm gradually taking over on Sunday. Rain will continue off and on, with isolated rumbles of thunder, early Sunday. Rain totals will fall between a half-inch to locally an inch.
Marginally cold air will be pulled into the storm, allowing for a rain/snow mix before the precipitation tapers off Sunday afternoon. Minor accumulations are possible over high terrain in west-central and north-central Ohio. Readings will drift down into the mid- to upper 30s.
Next week will start off dry and seasonably chilly, with mostly cloudy skies. Highs will be in the upper 30s Monday and low 40s Tuesday.
A fast-moving clipper-type system dropping southeast will bring a chance for rain showers late Tuesday, possibly ending a wet snow in the north early Wednesday. Clouds will linger during the day, but the air behind the system will be moderately cool, with little temperature change.
