What is the seven-day forecast for Columbus, Georgia?
Highs holding in the 90s through the week — highs 85° to 92° over the next five days.
Afternoons run between 85 and 92 degrees over the next five days. Nothing in the seven-day is asking for a change of plan. Forecast from the National Weather Service.
A seven-day is a pattern, not seven forecasts. What is worth knowing is what is steering the pattern.
Behind the day to day, a strong El Niño is in place — the Pacific index sits at +1.80. It does not decide any single afternoon, but it tilts the odds for the season.
The barometer is up 0.7 millibars in six hours. Rising pressure means air is sinking, and sinking air warms and dries on the way down, which is what clears a sky out.
The dew point is 57 — noticeable but not oppressive, and low enough that the nights can cool off properly.
