    Why it is doing this

    What the day does comes down to three things: where the air came from, which way the pressure is going, and how much of the sun gets through.

    The sky is nearly clear, so the sun does its full work by day and the ground radiates that heat straight back out after dark.

    The dew point is only 51. Dry air swings hard both ways: warm by afternoon, and a good deal colder by dawn than the forecast number suggests.

    The barometer is up 0.8 millibars in six hours. Rising pressure means air is sinking, and sinking air warms and dries on the way down, which is what clears a sky out.
