    Why is "the tenth evening was strange enough" wrong?

      "dost" in this context means "quite/very". If you wanted to express "strange enough", you would have to say "dostatečně zvláštní".

        I would argue that when "enough" is placed after an adjective as in "strange enough", it is slightly more emphatic and its meaning is very close to "quite".
