Alert. A Small Craft Advisory is in force for Fort Kamehameha Beach until 6 AM tomorrow. Read the alert in full, and see what it means in the Field Book.
Now. Fort Kamehameha Beach is 83° and mostly clear at 2 PM. The dew point is 66°, so the air feels oppressive. Moderate breeze from the east-northeast at 17 mph, gusting to 32 mph.
Today and tonight. The warmest of the day has passed; it cools to about 78° by 8 PM. Tonight falls to about 77° by 5 AM, under a mostly clear sky. No rain is expected for the rest of the day. The sun is strong around midday: UV index 10, very high. Unprotected skin can burn in under half an hour.
The week. Highs stay close to 84° all week. The days ahead look dry.
The sky tonight. The sun sets at 6:05 PM. The Moon is a waxing gibbous, 54% lit, and sets at 12:41 AM after midnight. The next full Moon is Sunday, Oct 25. 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 bright Moon hides all but the brightest of them. The sky is forecast to stay clear: a good night to look up. The day is 11 hours 37 minutes long, 2 minutes shorter than yesterday.
