Coming up. Tomorrow is 9 degrees cooler: a high of 69° after 78° today.
Now. Bullards Beach State Park is 55° and mostly clear at 11 PM. The dew point is 53°, so the air feels dry and comfortable. Light air from the northeast at 2 mph.
Today and tonight. Tonight falls to about 49° by 8 AM, under a mostly clear sky. No rain is expected for the rest of the day. Air quality is moderate (index 52): fine for most people, though people unusually sensitive to air pollution may feel it outdoors.
The week. The warmest day ahead is tomorrow, near 69°, and the coolest Monday, near 57°. Rain is possible Monday (37%).
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. The day is 11 hours 5 minutes long, 3 minutes shorter than yesterday.
As of 11:00 PM in Bullards Beach State Park, Oregon.
