prettygoodwordhesternal (hes-TUR-nuhl) - adj., (rare) of or pertaining to yesterday.
Not quite obsolete, as Wiktionary finds an example from 2014, but it's always been rare. Some languages have a hesternal tense, used for events that took place the day before. Compare hodiernal, relating to today, and nudiustertian, relating to the day before yesterday. From Latin hesternus, of yesterday, related to heri, yesterday.
