Coming up. Tomorrow is 21 degrees cooler: a high of 64° after 85° today.
Now. Pickens Golf Club is 76° and clear at 11 AM. The dew point is 67°, so the air feels oppressive. Light breeze from the southwest at 6 mph.
Today and tonight. It warms to about 84° by 2 PM. Tonight falls to about 48° by 8 AM, under a mostly clear sky. No rain is expected for the rest of the day. The sun is strong around midday: UV index 7, high. Unprotected skin can burn in under half an hour. Air quality is moderate (index 73): fine for most people, though people unusually sensitive to air pollution may feel it outdoors.

The sky tonight. The sun sets at 6:55 PM. The Moon is a waxing crescent, 33% lit, and sets at 11:03 PM. The next full Moon is Monday, Oct 26.
