Columbus. It's a wet one out there right now.
Here's the scale of this thing. The same front that's sending showers through Columbus right now is responsible for a rare May snowstorm in the Central Rockies, including the Denver area.
Once the morning showers clear, temperatures actually climb. The cold front passage brings a warmer afternoon behind it, which might feel counterintuitive.
The bigger concern isn't just today. The severe weather threat from this system extends through Wednesday.
Once this system moves through, heat and humidity are going to dominate. Warmth builds quickly after the storms end.
Columbus. Wet start, warm finish, stormy middle.
