Back to Back Months with Record Low Snowfall

Updating an earlier feature: Like February, March will again tie the record for snowfall in Columbus with only a trace of snowfall during the month. The only other year with a trace over the past 44 years was March of 1985. Incredibly, the last snowfall of over 0.1" occurred on January 30! The last snowfall of over an inch occurred on January 28 when 4.7" fell on the city.

Wx Synopsis

The cold air continues to stay in Ohio valley. This is caused by a stacked surface and upper level low pressure system. This low pressure system is pulling cooler air from the north. Temperatures are expected to increase into the lower 80s for Friday and Saturday. This will be good, comfortable weather for your 4th of July plans.
