Now. Kootenai Pass is 33° and mostly clear at 10 PM. With the wind it feels like 28°. The dew point is 28°, so the air feels dry and comfortable. Light breeze from the south-southwest at 5 mph.
Today and tonight. Tonight falls to about 31° 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 Saturday, near 50°, and the coolest Sunday, near 45°. The days ahead look dry. The windiest day is Saturday, with wind to 20 mph. The first freeze could come tomorrow, a low of 30°.
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 10 hours 51 minutes long, 4 minutes shorter than yesterday.
