It's time to get your grill out, and grab a calendar while you're at it.
Driving the news: Sunday, July 14, will be the best day for a summer cookout in the Columbus area, per a Pantry and Larder analysis of local weather data from 2019-2023.
What makes that the perfect barbecue date? These ideal conditions:
- A weekend or holiday.
- A slight breeze and minimal chance of rain.
- Cloud cover of 25% (for adequate shade).
- 9pm sunset.
👀 We'll have to see if that prediction holds up.
