The Clear Sky Chart below predicts the weather in Oak Harbor for the next 96 hours. Check back to this page often for updates. In the Clear Sky Chart, the darker the blue in the Cloud Cover row just after sunset, the better the chances of having fair conditions for a Star Party. Just remember, the chart is in military or 24 hour clock (18 is 6pm).
