- Description
- Dry conditions have started brush fires in the area and are making fighting the South Georgia fires difficult. As of 5PM Friday, the Pineland Fire is over 30,000 acres and dry conditions are making it difficult to suppress. The Brantley Fire is over 7,000 acres, and shifting winds have caused more evacuations.
The Weekend: Our next front is set to arrive later tomorrow, and with it, a chance for rain. Scattered storms are set to enter early Saturday afternoon. We are not ruling out one or two strong storms.
Next Week: Rain chances will start to ramp up again by the middle of the week. We can thank our second cold front for this. Stray storms will develop late Tuesday, with more scattered storms likely on Wednesday.
Between both fronts, rainfall totals aren't too impressive. Across the region, totals will likely be below 2 inches.
Once the front clears early Friday, the end of the week will dry back out—the big change....cooler t...

- Description
- At Columbus Hospice, giving back to those who care for our community is always a priority. Their nurses and administrative teams provide invaluable support to patients and families every day, and we’re proud to partner with them in return.
Each year, we take time to highlight why weather awareness should remain top of mind—especially for traveling nurses and local staff who are often on the move. This year’s discussion focused on severe weather safety and how preparation can make all the difference when conditions turn dangerous.
Important questions came up during the session, including how to locate nearby storm shelters and how to plan ahead before life-threatening weather strikes. These conversations are a reminder that staying informed and prepared is essential not just on the job, but at home as well.

- Store fronts located in Uptown Columbus on Broadway say they have seen the impacts of Market Days on Broadway, a weekly event that allows vendors to sell their merchandise.
Roger Stinson, the successor of Chancellors, a clothing store that’s been in Columbus since 1873 says the Market Days are good to them. He says it has helped build clientele locally, nationally and internationally.
The same rings true for Lexiee Campbell, the owner of Flowers on Tenth as she has had two orders from Canada and one from Australia. However, other flower vendors have set up shop near her, but Campbell doesn’t see it as competition due to the difference in target audience.
Campbell also says that there is enough room in this world for people to do what they’re passionate about.

- Description
- Mild and comfortable conditions will stick around for the rest of the workweek, with afternoon temperatures holding steady in the lower to mid 80s through Friday. Skies will remain mostly calm, offering a stretch of pleasant spring weather across the region.
As we head into Saturday, changes begin to take shape. A developing storm system will move closer, bringing an uptick in rain chances. Some early storms are possible, but activity is expected to taper off as the weekend progresses. Despite the unsettled start, temperatures will continue to hover in the lower 80s through Sunday.
Looking ahead, attention turns to early next week. Forecast models are aligning on a more significant system arriving Tuesday, with the 28th currently appearing to be the most likely timing. This front has a stronger dynamic, raising the potential for more impactful weather, including the possibility of severe storms.
Beyond that, another period to watch emerges around ...

- Runtime

- Date posted
- 2 months ago
- Description
- For the rest of this forecast, conditions remain dry as strong high pressure stays in control. We’ll need that system to weaken before any real rain chances return.
That shift looks to begin late Saturday and continue into early next week, as the high-pressure ridge starts to break down. Even then, storms don’t appear especially organized, but a few could develop in the form of mesoscale convective systems.
Temperatures will also be on the rise. Afternoon highs climb into the lower 80s by the end of the week.
Morning lows start off cool, with Tuesday beginning in the mid to upper 40s. By Friday morning, temperatures will be milder, ranging from the mid to upper 50s.
Overall, the First Alert Forecast stays mostly dry through the week, with limited and scattered storm chances returning this weekend.
