Mountain passes/Montana/Lone Tree Pass
Now. Lone Tree Pass is 26° and clear at 10 PM. With the wind it feels like 15°. The dew point is 26°, so the air feels dry and comfortable. Gentle breeze from the east-southeast at 12 mph.
Today and tonight. Tonight falls to about 23° by 5 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 51°, and the coolest Wednesday, near 40°. The days ahead look dry. The first freeze could come tomorrow, a low of 23°.
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 55 minutes long, 3 minutes shorter than yesterday.
