Today in Hughenden
- Very high UV index: 9.6 around 13:00. Stay in the shade between 11:00 and 17:00. Fair skin burns in about 21 minutes: avoid exposure, cover up and use SPF 50. How it is calculated
- Heat: up to 38.1 °C in the next three days (days at 30 °C or more over the next 14: 7). Night ventilation: open the windows between 23:00 and 8:00, 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: 7. How it is calculated
- Airing the house between 16:00 and 18:00 is still the least bad option: a dew point of 10.6 °C means 55 % humidity once the air is warmed to 20 °C, barely better than the 50 % of a typical home. Five to ten minutes of through-draught is enough. How it is calculated
- Washing outside: around 16:00. With 22 % humidity, 36.3 °C and wind at 9.3 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 14 mm. Water tomorrow, between 5:00 and 8:00, while it is cool: allow about 14 L/m². How it is calculated
- Terrace and barbecue between 18:00 and 23:00: dry, wind at 11 km/h, 30 °C at 8 pm. A lovely evening. How it is calculated
- Starry sky between 22:00 and 5:00: 3 % 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
