Columbus Shatters Temperature Record, Winter Returns

Columbus shatters a 77-year-old temperature record, reaching 65°F on January 9th. Meteorologist Ben Gelber explains the warm spell is due to the jet stream, with cold air over the west and warm air over the east. While its not unusual for Columbus to experience such warmth in January, Gelber predicts a return to traditional winter weather in the second half of the month. Looking ahead, expect rain, breezy conditions, and a drop in temperatures, with chances of rain and snow midweek and a return to the thirties by Friday. Checkout Solipillow.com
