Now. Coldfoot Airport is 32° and overcast at 11 PM. With the wind it feels like 24°. The dew point is 19°, so the air feels dry and comfortable. Gentle breeze from the northeast at 11 mph.
Today and tonight. Tonight falls to about 23° by 8 AM, under cloud. A freeze: protect plants and pipes. No rain is expected for the rest of the day.
The week. The warmest day ahead is tomorrow, near 28°, and the coolest Monday, near 16°. Rain is possible tomorrow (40%) and Saturday (36%). The first freeze could come tomorrow, a low of 20°.
The sky now. The Moon is a waxing crescent, 27% lit, and stays below the horizon until dawn. The next full Moon is Sunday, Oct 25. Look for Saturn, bright in the south-southeast. A planet shines with a steady light where the stars around it twinkle. The Orionids meteor shower is active, peaking around Oct 21: at its peak, up to about 20 meteors an hour can be seen from a dark site. Cloud is forecast to cover most of the night, so the sky will be hard to see. The day is 9 hours 29 minutes long, 8 minutes shorter than yesterday.
