Currently, we are at 76 degrees and sunny in N. Syracuse. A pretty nice afternoon, with lots of sun and nice warm temperatures. You don’t often get weather like this during the first week of October. It will cool down come Columbus Day Weekend, but right now, we aren’t looking at a major washout.

At sunset, look for partly clear conditions and 74 degrees. The dew point will be 54 degrees. There will be a south-southeast breeze at 7 mph. Talk about a great way to kick off the weekend. Will be a good night for kicking back next to a fire in the woods, and sitting up and looking at the moon and stars.

The sun will set at 6:33 pm with dusk around 7:01 pm, which is 1 minutes and 44 seconds earlier than yesterday.

There is a Waxing Crescent Moon tonight with 44% illuminated. The moon will set around 1:27 am. The First Quarter Moon is on Saturday night with clearing skies expected. The Full “Hunter” Moon is a week from Saturday night.
