Good evening! Cloudy and 63 degrees in North Syracuse. There is a south-southwest breeze at 10 mph. The dew point is 55 degrees. The skies will clear tomorrow around 4 am.

Somewhat watching the debate, but not really. Mostly playing on Facebook and Twitter and drinking, thinking I better stop pretty soon if I want to get up and go to work tomorrow. It’s interesting to learn about both candidates, although I’m still not certain who I will vote for come November. I like being an undecided voter — it gives me a chance to listen to the candidates with an open mind.

Tonight will have showers, mainly before 1am. Low around 54, with a low of 55 degrees at 6am. Seven degrees above normal. Maximum dew point of 56 at 11pm. Southwest wind 6 to 10 mph. Chance of precipitation is 100%. New precipitation amounts between a tenth and quarter of an inch possible. The record low of 24 occurred back in 1947. Waning Crescent Moon tonight with 25% illuminated. The moon will rise around 3:01 am. The New Moon is on Saturday at 12:11 am with chance of showers expected. The Full “Harvest” Moon is on Sunday, October 16th at 4:23 am.

Tomorrow will be mostly sunny, with a high of 68 degrees at 3pm. One degrees above normal. Maximum dew point of 52 at 6am. Southwest wind around 6 mph. The record high of 84 was set in 1998. The sun will rise at 6:57 am with the first light at 6:29 am, which is 1 minutes and 7 seconds later then yesterday.

Looking ahead, Columbus Day is in 2 weeks, Halloween is in 5 weeks, Last Day with 10 Hours of Daylight in Albany is in 6 weeks and Beaver Moon is in 7 weeks.
