The week. Highs stay close to 54° all week. Rain is possible Thursday (44%). The first freeze could come tomorrow, a low of 22°.
The sky tonight. The sun sets at 6:25 PM. The Moon is a waxing crescent, 34% lit, and sets at 10:25 PM. 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 sky is forecast to stay clear: a good night to look up. The day is 11 hours 9 minutes long, 3 minutes shorter than yesterday.
