Now. Blue Ridge Country Club is 68° and overcast at 10 PM. The dew point is 67°, so the air feels oppressive. Light breeze from the south-southeast at 5 mph.
Today and tonight. Tonight falls to about 61° by 8 AM, under a mostly clear sky. No rain is expected for the rest of the day.
The week. The warmest day ahead is tomorrow, near 77°, and the coolest Saturday, near 49°. Rain is possible Saturday (37%). Frost is possible Sunday morning, a low of 34°.
The sky now. The Moon is a waxing crescent, 25% lit, and stays below the horizon until dawn. The next full Moon is Monday, Oct 26. 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 17 minutes long, 2 minutes shorter than yesterday.
