Today in Coober Pedy
- Very high UV index: 8.8 around 13:00. Stay in the shade between 12:00 and 18:00. Fair skin burns in about 23 minutes: avoid exposure, cover up and use SPF 50. How it is calculated
- Best time to air the house: between 19:00 and 22:00. The outdoor dew point drops to −1.5 °C; once warmed to 20 °C, that air holds only 23 % humidity, against 50 % in a typical home: opening the windows dries the house. How it is calculated
- Washing outside: between 12:00 and 14:00. With 25 % humidity, 24 °C and wind at 10.2 km/h, a load of cotton washing dries in about 2 h. How it is calculated
- Heat: up to 32.5 °C in the next three days (days at 30 °C or more over the next 14: 4). Night ventilation: open the windows between 21:00 and 10:00, 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: 1. How it is calculated
- Garden: barely 0 mm of rain in 48 h against a need of about 16 mm. Water tomorrow, between 6:00 and 9:00, while it is cool: allow about 16 L/m². How it is calculated
- Terrace and barbecue between 18:00 and 23:00: dry, wind at 14 km/h, 26 °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
