Weather/South Carolina/Patrick
Coming up. Tomorrow is 25 degrees cooler: a high of 63° after 88° today.
Now. Patrick is 68° and partly cloudy at 1 AM. The dew point is 66°, so the air feels oppressive. Light air from the south-southwest at 1 mph.
Today and tonight. It warms to about 87° by 3 PM. Tonight falls to about 55° by 8 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 Wednesday, near 72°, and the coolest Sunday, near 60°. Rain is possible tomorrow (49%).
The sky tonight. The sun sets at 6:45 PM. The Moon is a waxing crescent, 33% lit, and sets at 10:53 PM. The next full Moon is Monday, Oct 26. 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.
