Mountain passes/Montana/Hellroaring Pass
Now. Hellroaring Pass is 33° and clear at 11 PM. With the wind it feels like 29°. The dew point is 27°, so the air feels dry and comfortable. Light breeze from the east-southeast at 4 mph.
Today and tonight. Tonight falls to about 22° by 7 AM, under a mostly clear sky. A freeze: protect plants and pipes. No rain is expected for the rest of the day. Air quality is moderate (index 63): fine for most people, though people unusually sensitive to air pollution may feel it outdoors.
The week. The warmest day ahead is Saturday, near 56°, and the coolest Wednesday, near 46°. The days ahead look dry. The first freeze could come tomorrow, a low of 22°.
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 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 10 hours 54 minutes long, 4 minutes shorter than yesterday.
