Coming up. Tomorrow is 9 degrees warmer: a high of 43° after 34° today.
Now. Ute Pass is 18° and clear at 10 PM. With the wind it feels like 11°. The dew point is 18°, so the air feels dry and comfortable. Light breeze from the north-northeast at 5 mph.
Today and tonight. Tonight falls to about 12° by 6 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 Wednesday, near 49°, and the coolest tomorrow, near 43°. The days ahead look dry. The first freeze could come tomorrow, a low of 11°.
The sky now. The Moon is a waxing crescent, 26% lit, and stays below the horizon until dawn. The next full Moon is Sunday, Oct 25. 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 9 minutes long, 2 minutes shorter than yesterday.
