FROST

Patchy frost possible today night

Will it freeze tonight in Columbus, Georgia?

Patchy frost possible today night — low around 35°.

Today bottoms out near 35 degrees across the Valley. Low spots and open ground go first.

Why it is doing this

How cold a night gets is settled less by the daytime high than by how dry the air is and whether anything is holding the heat in.

The dew point is only 39. 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 northwest at about 4 miles an hour, so the air over us is coming down out of the continent behind a front, which is the driest air we get.
