What is the weather today in Columbus, Georgia?

Chance of rain over the next twelve hours. Map: CNAW 2, built from NOAA data on a USGS base.

Partly sunny, with a high near 80. Northeast wind 5 to 10 mph, with gusts as high as 20 mph. Tonight: Partly cloudy, with a low around 61. Friday: Sunny, with a high near 82.

Why it is doing this

What the day does comes down to three things: where the air came from, which way the pressure is going, and how much of the sun gets through.

Cloud cover is close to total, which caps the afternoon high and holds the overnight low up.

The dew point is 64 — noticeable but not oppressive, and low enough that the nights can cool off properly.

The barometer is up 2.2 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.
