COLUMBUS, Ga. (WTVM) – Tonight, expect mostly clear to partly cloudy skies with temperatures ranging from the low- to mid-40s. With Sunday being a travel day as some are heading home from the Thanksgiving holiday, you may see some wet roads on the drive home.

On Sunday, stray shower in the morning hours may appear especially in areas south of Columbus, with most areas seeing a chance of showers beginning in the afternoon through the early overnight hours. The start of the new work week looks to see a dry stretch of weather along with some chilly temperatures, especially in the beginning half of the new work week. A dry cold front will move through the Valley on Monday leaving behind below average temperatures through Thursday.

Monday morning temperatures in the low- to mid-40s, before reaching the upper-50s with partly cloudy skies in the morning, giving way to more sunshine in the afternoon. Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings look to be the chilliest of the week; afternoon temperatures in the mid-50s Tuesday before warming gradually to the low-60s by Thursday.
