ATAQ, Friday. — Partly cloudy skies are the word from the Ataq station, with a high of 28° and a low of 17°. That is about what a November day usually brings here, where the long-run average high is 28°. Barely a breath of wind stirs from the SE, gusting to 7 km/h, and the glass holds steady.

Looking over the next 7 days, our correspondent reckons today the pick at about 28°, while Thursday night will be the coldest at 14°. Not a drop is expected in that time. No frost is in sight.

By the Almanac's reckoning, November in Ataq runs from 18° at night to 28° by day, with some 4.0 mm of rain. July is the warmest month here at 37°, January the coldest at 14°, and May the wettest with 22 mm. The best months to ride in are January and December.

The sun is up 11 h 29 min today, and the days are shortening by about 1 minutes each. The station stands 1,277 m above the sea; nights in high country cool fast once the sun is down.
