The week. Highs stay close to 78° all week. The days ahead look dry. The windiest day is Sunday, with wind to 21 mph.
The sky now. The Moon is a waxing crescent, 35% lit, and sets at 10:47 PM. The next full Moon is Sunday, Oct 25. 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. The day is 11 hours 43 minutes long, 1 minute shorter than yesterday.
