Weather/Mississippi/Okolona
Coming up. Tomorrow is 16 degrees cooler: a high of 78° after 94° today.
Now. Okolona is 70° and clear at 11 PM. The dew point is 64°, so the air feels humid and sticky. Light air from the south-southwest at 2 mph.
Today and tonight. Tonight falls to about 64° by 6 AM, under a mostly clear sky. No rain is expected for the rest of the day.
The week. The warmest day ahead is Wednesday, near 83°, and the coolest Saturday, near 68°. The days ahead look dry.
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 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. The day is 11 hours 22 minutes long, 2 minutes shorter than yesterday.
