Today in Childers
- Very high UV index: 9.3 around 12:00. Stay in the shade between 11:00 and 17:00. Fair skin burns in about 22 minutes: avoid exposure, cover up and use SPF 50. How it is calculated
- Best time to air the house: between 12:00 and 14:00. The outdoor dew point drops to 5.5 °C; once warmed to 20 °C, that air holds only 39 % humidity, against 50 % in a typical home: opening the windows dries the house. The outdoor air stays damp enough for 5 days in a row to push indoor humidity above 60 %, the level at which dust mites thrive: keep an eye on rooms with no draught. How it is calculated
- Washing outside: around 14:00. With 19 % humidity, 33.3 °C and wind at 11.8 km/h, a load of cotton washing dries in about 1 h. How it is calculated
- Heat: up to 33.4 °C in the next three days (days at 30 °C or more over the next 14: 4). Night ventilation: open the windows between 19:00 and 9:00, as soon as the outside air drops below 26 °C, and close windows and shutters again in the morning. Nights at 20 °C or more over the next 14 days: 2. How it is calculated
- Garden: barely 0.1 mm of rain in 48 h against a need of about 13.1 mm. Water tomorrow, between 5:00 and 8:00, while it is cool: allow about 13 L/m². How it is calculated
- Terrace and barbecue between 18:00 and 23:00: dry, wind at 13 km/h, 24 °C at 8 pm. A lovely evening. How it is calculated
- Starry sky between 22:00 and 5:00: 0 % average cloud cover tonight, 7 h of clear sky in a row, moon at 14 % (waning crescent). A good night to look up. How it is calculated
