Today and tonight. Tonight falls to about 30° by 7 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 66°, and the coolest Wednesday, near 45°. Rain is likely Tuesday (60%) and Wednesday (55%). The first freeze could come tomorrow, a low of 30°.
The sky now. The Moon is a waxing crescent, 27% lit, and stays below the horizon until dawn. The next full Moon is Sunday, Oct 25. Look for Saturn, bright in the south. 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 14 minutes long, 2 minutes shorter than yesterday.
