BUS STOP FORECAST

Monday Bus Stop Forecast: A Cold Start in Hogansville, a Warm Afternoon

How cold will it be Monday morning at the bus stop in LaGrange and Columbus GA?

At 7 AM Monday it will be 38 degrees in LaGrange and 46 in Columbus, with the area's coldest stop at 36 degrees in Hogansville and patchy frost possible around Lanett.

Eleven degrees will separate the coldest bus stop in the viewing area from the warmest at 7 o'clock Monday morning. In Hogansville, where Callaway students wait, the temperature is forecast at 36 degrees with no wind at all. In Phenix City, where Central students wait, it will be 47.

That kind of spread shows up on nights like this one. With clear skies and calm air, the ground radiates its heat away to space instead of mixing it around, and the coldest air slides downhill and pools in the low spots. Our northern counties also sit nearest the frost advisory the Weather Service in Peachtree City posted for parts of north and west Georgia along and north of Interstate 85, where lows inside the advisory area were expected to fall between 32 and 26 degrees.

The cold corner of the map is the Troup and Meriwether County side. Hogansville starts at 36. LaGrange, where LaGrange High, Troup County and LaGrange Academy are, begins at 38, and so does Greenville. All three are sunny and dead calm. Just across the state line in Lanett, home of Lanett High and Springwood, the forecast is 39 degrees with patchy frost. That is not a contradiction: a thermometer reads the air about five feet off the ground, while the grass, windshields and mailboxes cool several degrees further and can whiten while the air stays above freezing.

The middle of the area lands in the low 40s. Manchester and Georgetown, where Quitman County students wait, start at 41. LaFayette and Chambers Academy, Valley and Beulah, Chattahoochee County in Cusseta, Central-Talbotton and Webster County in Preston all begin at 43. Harris County in Hamilton, Eufaula, Booker T. Washington in Tuskegee and Barbour County in Clayton open at 44. Russell County in Seale, Marion County in Buena Vista, Randolph Clay in Cuthbert, Schley County in Ellaville, Stewart County in Lumpkin and Taylor County in Butler all start at 45.

The mildest stops are the metro ones. Columbus sits at 46 for Shaw, Hardaway, Columbus, Spencer, Kendrick, Jordan, Carver, Northside, Calvary Christian, Pacelli and Brookstone. Auburn and Lee-Scott, Opelika and Beauregard, Smiths Station and Glenwood, Loachapoka and Notasulga all begin at 46 as well, with Phenix City the warmest at 47. Winds everywhere are calm or near 5 mph, and the rain chance is zero at every single stop.

So: a real jacket in Hogansville, LaGrange, Greenville and Lanett, a hoodie just about everywhere else, and nothing waterproof needed anywhere. Pick something a child can take off, because Columbus climbs to 76 degrees Monday afternoon, a 30-degree swing from the morning in the northern towns.

One more thing worth knowing as you stand out there in the dark: Columbus is down to 10 hours and 40 minutes of daylight and losing about a minute and a half more each day, and that continues until the December solstice on Monday, December 21.
