Alert. A Wind Advisory is in force for Creola until 7 PM tomorrow. Read the alert in full, and see what it means in the Field Book. Tomorrow is 15 degrees cooler: a high of 71° after 86° today.
Now. Creola is 84° and mostly clear at 1 PM. With the humidity it feels like 89°. The dew point is 71°, so the air feels very oppressive. Light breeze from the west-southwest at 5 mph.
Today and tonight. Tonight falls to about 54° by 7 AM, under a mostly clear sky. No rain is expected for the rest of the day. The sun is strong around midday: UV index 7, high. Unprotected skin can burn in under half an hour. Air quality is moderate (index 55): fine for most people, though people unusually sensitive to air pollution may feel it outdoors.
The week. The warmest day ahead is Thursday, near 81°, and the coolest tomorrow, near 71°. The days ahead look dry.
The sky tonight. The sun sets at 6:20 PM. The Moon is a waxing crescent, 33% lit, and sets at 10:38 PM. The next full Moon is Sunday, Oct 25. After dark, look for Saturn, bright in the east-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.
