When rain could return this week
We enjoyed a warm and muggy Fourth of July. A few isolated showers and storms popped up mostly a little south of Columbus, then dissipated by sunset.
The weather was also ideal for community fireworks. Temperatures topped out around 90 degrees, the warmest since June 3. Readings will fall back into the upper 70s after sunset at 9:04.
A weak bubble of high pressure will keep conditions dry on Wednesday, with readings warming to the upper 80s, with mostly sunny skies.
Clouds will develop early on Thursday. Scattered showers and storms will increase in coverage ahead of a cold front in the afternoon. Behind the front, cooler and less humid air will follow on Friday and Saturday.
Saturday looks to be partly cloudy and seasonally warm. A cold front could trigger a few showers and storms later on Sunday.
