The week. The warmest day ahead is Saturday, near 75°, and the coolest Wednesday, near 57°. The days ahead look dry. The first freeze could come tomorrow, a low of 28°.
The sky now. The Moon is a waxing crescent, 25% lit, and sets at 8:54 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.
