The week. Highs stay close to 35° all week. Rain is possible Sunday (42%). The windiest day is tomorrow, with wind to 34 mph. The first freeze could come Saturday, a low of 29°.
The sky now. The Moon is a waxing crescent, 26% lit, and sets at 8:21 PM. The next full Moon is Sunday, Oct 25. After dark, look for Saturn, bright in the east-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 10 hours 4 minutes long, 5 minutes shorter than yesterday.
