FORECAST DISCUSSION:

Breezy conditions are expected to pick up as the day goes on. Wind gusts at times will be close to 30 mph. Temperatures do cool down a little bit, but highs will still run a bit above average for the middle of October. Highs will reach the mid 70s in Columbus.

There will be isolated chanced for spotty sprinkles. North of Columbus can see the majority of the rain that will fall. All of this comes along a cold front that will move through by Sunday night.

The rest of Central Ohio tries to pick up a few more rain drops. Though most will not see rain, everyone is going to feel the cooler temperatures with lows dropping to the mid 40s. Winds will stay fairly breezy overnight as well.

The work and school week will be the coolest Central Ohio has seen in a while. There will be a stretch of days with highs in the 50s. Overnight lows by the the middle of the week will fall very close to the freezing point in the city.
