Now. Blanding Municipal Airport is 52° and clear at 11 PM. The dew point is 35°, so the air feels dry and comfortable. Fresh breeze from the north-northeast at 19 mph.
Today and tonight. Tonight falls to about 42° by 7 AM, under a mostly clear sky. No rain is expected for the rest of the day.
The week. Highs stay close to 61° all week. Rain is likely Tuesday (61%) and Wednesday (70%).
The sky now. The Moon is a waxing crescent, 26% lit, and stays below the horizon until dawn. The next full Moon is Sunday, Oct 25. Look for Saturn, bright in the south-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 16 minutes long, 2 minutes shorter than yesterday.
