Now. Rocky Mountain National Park is 26° and clear at 7 AM. With the wind it feels like 18°. The dew point is 15°, so the air feels dry and comfortable. Gentle breeze from the west-southwest at 8 mph.
Today and tonight. It warms to about 44° by 12 PM. Tonight falls to about 27° by 5 AM, under a mostly clear sky. A freeze: protect plants and pipes. No rain is expected for the rest of the day.
The week. The warmest day ahead is Thursday, near 48°, and the coolest Saturday, near 37°. Rain is likely Friday (63%) and Saturday (64%). Rain is possible Thursday (47%). The first freeze could come tomorrow, a low of 27°.
The sky tonight. The sun sets at 6:19 PM. The Moon is a first quarter, 52% lit, and sets at 12:21 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 3 minutes long, 3 minutes shorter than yesterday.
