Alert. A Red Flag Warning is in force for Groveland until 10 AM tomorrow. Read the alert in full, and see what it means in the Field Book.
Now. Groveland is 62° and clear at 11 PM. The dew point is 31°, so the air feels dry and comfortable. Gentle breeze from the east-northeast at 8 mph, gusting to 21 mph.
Today and tonight. Tonight falls to about 60° by 7 AM, under a mostly clear sky. No rain is expected for the rest of the day.
The week. The warmest day ahead is tomorrow, near 83°, and the coolest Wednesday, near 59°. Rain is possible Tuesday (35%) and Wednesday (43%).
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-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.
