Today in Dampier
- Very high UV index: 8.8 around 12:00. Stay in the shade between 9:00 and 17:00. Fair skin burns in about 23 minutes: avoid exposure, cover up and use SPF 50. How it is calculated
- Heat: up to 38.6 °C in the next three days (days at 30 °C or more over the next 14: 7). The air does not drop below 26 °C in the next 48 hours: ventilating at night will not cool the house. Keep shutters closed by day, and drink regularly. Nights at 20 °C or more over the next 14 days: 7. How it is calculated
- Best time to air the house: around 9:00. The outdoor dew point drops to 8.5 °C; once warmed to 20 °C, that air holds only 47 % 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 11:00. With 23 % humidity, 38.4 °C and wind at 8.3 km/h, a load of cotton washing dries in about 1 h. How it is calculated
- Garden: barely 0 mm of rain in 48 h against a need of about 17.6 mm. Water tomorrow, between 5:00 and 8:00, while it is cool: allow about 18 L/m². How it is calculated
- Terrace and barbecue between 18:00 and 23:00: dry, wind at 12 km/h, 29 °C at 8 pm. A lovely evening. How it is calculated
- Starry sky between 22:00 and 4:00: 6 % average cloud cover tonight, 6 h of clear sky in a row, moon at 14 % (waning crescent). A good night to look up. How it is calculated
