Beaches/Washington/Washaway Beach
Coming up. Tomorrow is 8 degrees cooler: a high of 59° after 67° today.
Now. Washaway Beach is 55° and mostly clear at 9 AM. The dew point is 48°, so the air feels dry and comfortable. Light breeze from the east-southeast at 5 mph.
Today and tonight. It warms to about 64° by 1 PM. Tonight falls to about 54° by 8 AM, with some cloud. No rain is expected for the rest of the day.
The week. The warmest day ahead is tomorrow, near 59°, and the coolest Monday, near 55°. Rain is likely tomorrow (88%). Rain is possible Thursday (35%).
The sky tonight. The sun sets at 6:28 PM. The Moon is a waxing crescent, 34% lit, and sets at 10:07 PM. The next full Moon is Sunday, Oct 25. 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. Cloud is forecast to cover most of the night, so the sky will be hard to see. The day is 10 hours 54 minutes long, 4 minutes shorter than yesterday.
As of 9:00 AM in Washaway Beach, Washington.
