What is the weather tonight in Columbus, Georgia?

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 60 — noticeable but not oppressive, and low enough that the nights can cool off properly.

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.
