Coming up. Tomorrow is 8 degrees cooler: a high of 52° after 60° today.
Now. Hardin County Airport is 71° and mostly cloudy at 3 AM. The dew point is 70°, so the air feels oppressive. Gentle breeze from the southwest at 11 mph, gusting to 23 mph.
Today and tonight. The warmest of the day has passed; it cools to about 51° by 8 PM. Tonight falls to about 38° by 8 AM, under a mostly clear sky. Air quality is moderate (index 58): fine for most people, though people unusually sensitive to air pollution may feel it outdoors.
The week. The warmest day ahead is Thursday, near 70°, and the coolest tomorrow, near 52°. The days ahead look dry. Frost is possible Sunday morning, a low of 33°.
The sky tonight. The sun sets at 6:53 PM. The Moon is a waxing crescent, 33% lit, and sets at 10:46 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.
