Today in Foster

  • Very high UV index: 8.1 around 13:00. Stay in the shade between 12:00 and 18:00. Fair skin burns in about 25 minutes: avoid exposure, cover up and use SPF 50. How it is calculated
  • Terrace and barbecue between 18:00 and 23:00: wind at 16 km/h, gusts up to 46 km/h. Lay the parasol flat and shelter the barbecue. How it is calculated
  • Best time to air the house: between 16:00 and 19:00. The outdoor dew point drops to 6.5 °C; once warmed to 20 °C, that air holds only 41 % humidity, against 50 % in a typical home: opening the windows dries the house. How it is calculated
  • Washing outside: allow about 5 h, hanging it out between 14:00 and 19:00. Air at 67 % humidity, 14.2 °C and wind at 20.9 km/h: it will dry, but not quickly. How it is calculated
  • Garden: 15.9 mm of rain expected within 48 h, against a need of 6.1 mm. No need to water, the rain will do it. How it is calculated
