Now. Agate Beach is 57° and clear at 1 PM. The dew point is 41°, so the air feels dry and comfortable. Light air from the southwest at 2 mph.
Today and tonight. The warmest of the day has passed; it cools to about 49° by 8 PM. Tonight falls to about 46° by 8 AM, with some cloud. No rain is expected for the rest of the day.
The week. The warmest day ahead is Wednesday, near 69°, and the coolest Friday, near 58°. Rain is likely Saturday (51%). Rain is possible Sunday (42%).
The sky tonight. The sun sets at 6:29 PM. The Moon is a waxing gibbous, 62% lit, and sets at 1:38 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. Cloud is forecast to cover most of the night, so the sky will be hard to see. The day is 10 hours 54 minutes long, 3 minutes shorter than yesterday.
As of 1:00 PM in Agate Beach, Oregon.
