    What is the weather tonight in Columbus, Georgia?

    Tonight in Columbus, Georgia: partly cloudy, low near 57° — monday high 79° · Monday Night low 61°.

    Partly cloudy, with a low around 57. Northeast wind around 10 mph, with gusts as high as 20 mph. Monday: Partly sunny, with a high near 79. Monday Night: Mostly cloudy, with a low around 61.

    Why it is doing this

    What an overnight low actually reaches has less to do with the day just gone than with two things after dark: how dry the air is, and whether there is any cloud to hold the heat in.

    The dew point is only 45. Dry air swings hard both ways: warm by afternoon, and a good deal colder by dawn than the forecast number suggests.

    The sky is nearly clear, so the sun does its full work by day and the ground radiates that heat straight back out after dark.

    The wind is out of the east at about 8 miles an hour, so the air over us is coming in from the Atlantic side of Georgia.
