Now. Findlay Airport is 72° and light rain at 4 AM. The dew point is 68°, so the air feels oppressive. Moderate breeze from the west-southwest at 15 mph, gusting to 28 mph.
Today and tonight. The warmest of the day has passed; it cools to about 51° by 8 PM. Tonight falls to about 37° by 8 AM, under a mostly clear sky. Air quality is moderate (index 52): fine for most people, though people unusually sensitive to air pollution may feel it outdoors.
The week. The warmest day ahead is Thursday, near 71°, and the coolest tomorrow, near 53°. The days ahead look dry. The first freeze could come Sunday, a low of 32°.
The sky tonight. The sun sets at 6:53 PM. The Moon is a waxing crescent, 33% lit, and sets at 10:45 PM. The next full Moon is Monday, Oct 26. 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. The sky is forecast to stay clear: a good night to look up.
