Alert. A Freeze Warning is in force for Hunt Field until 9 AM tomorrow. Read the alert in full, and see what it means in the Field Book.
Now. Hunt Field is 41° and mostly clear at 10 PM. The dew point is 29°, so the air feels dry and comfortable. Light air from the west-southwest at 2 mph.
Today and tonight. Tonight falls to about 33° by 6 AM, under a mostly clear sky. Frost can form on the ground in sheltered spots. No rain is expected for the rest of the day.
The week. The warmest day ahead is Saturday, near 66°, and the coolest tomorrow, near 55°. The days ahead look dry. The first freeze could come tomorrow, a low of 30°.
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 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 6 minutes long, 2 minutes shorter than yesterday.
