Special Information:
 
High pressure continues to hold strong, bringing sunshine and warm temperatures to central Ohio. We’ll see another pleasant evening with mainly clear skies and temperatures quickly cooling after sunset. Overnight lows will range from the mid 50s to low 60s.
 
Friday will bring us another round of mostly sunny skies, light winds and even warmer temperatures pushing 90 degrees. We haven’t hit 90 degrees in Columbus since August 8th. An Air Quality Alert will be in effect tomorrow for sensitive groups as the weather conditions will lead to more smog formation. Smog forms when the sun bakes the pollutants from our vehicles, factories and other sources. Young children, the elderly and folks with respiratory conditions are urged to limit outdoor activities.
 
Dry and warm conditions will likely continue into the weekend. Highs will be in the upper 80s to near 90 both Saturday and Sunday with a slight increase in humidity. Our next best chances for rain will come Monday and Tuesday with highs in the low to mid 80s.
 
Alerts:   Air Quality Alert in effect through Friday.
 
Inconvenient Weather:  None.
 
Planning Your Day:  Expect a pleasant evening under mainly clear skies. Friday will be mostly sunny with highs in the upper 80s to near 90.
