Now. Molokai Airport is 76° and mostly cloudy at 8 PM. The dew point is 69°, so the air feels oppressive. Moderate breeze from the northeast at 15 mph, gusting to 25 mph.
Today and tonight. Tonight falls to about 73° by 4 AM, under a mostly clear sky. No rain is expected for the rest of the day.
The week. Highs stay close to 85° all week. The days ahead look dry. The windiest day is Sunday, with wind to 22 mph.
The sky now. The Moon is a waxing crescent, 27% lit, and sets at 9:58 PM. The next full Moon is Sunday, Oct 25. 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. The sky is forecast to stay clear: a good night to look up. The day is 11 hours 41 minutes long, 1 minute shorter than yesterday.
