The week. The warmest day ahead is tomorrow, near 78°, and the coolest Saturday, near 51°. Rain is possible tomorrow (36%) and Saturday (42%). Frost is possible Sunday morning, a low of 35°.
The sky now. The Moon is a waxing crescent, 26% lit, and stays below the horizon until dawn. The next full Moon is Monday, Oct 26. 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.
