The week. The warmest day ahead is tomorrow, near 52°, and the coolest Thursday, near 44°. Rain is likely Thursday (77%). The first freeze could come tomorrow, a low of 21°.
The sky now. The Moon is a waxing crescent, 35% lit, and stays below the horizon until dawn. The next full Moon is Sunday, Oct 25. Look for Saturn, bright in the south-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 10 minutes long, 2 minutes shorter than yesterday.
