Columbus Experiences Dense Fog and Anticipates Afternoon Storms
Columbus, Ohio, is currently experiencing dense fog, with a Dense Fog Advisory in effect until 10:00 AM, limiting visibility to under a quarter of a mile. Following the lifting of the fog, the region expects a mix of sun and clouds, with temperatures reaching the mid-80s. A cold front is projected to move into the area later in the afternoon, which could trigger isolated showers and thunderstorms. While there is a marginal risk for severe weather, widespread severe storms are not anticipated due to limited instability, despite significant wind energy in the atmosphere. The primary concern for any strong storms would be damaging wind gusts. After the cold front passes this evening, winds will shift to the northwest, bringing a noticeable drop in humidity and more comfortable air.
