Today in Penhold
- Hard frost between 6:00 and 10:00: −5.4 °C around 7:00. Protect pots, pipes and outdoor taps; fleece is not enough for the most tender plants, so bring them indoors. How it is calculated
- Best time to air the house: between 13:00 and 16:00. The outdoor dew point drops to −7.8 °C; once warmed to 20 °C, that air holds only 15 % humidity, against 50 % in a typical home: opening the windows dries the house. How it is calculated
- Washing outside: allow about 6 h, hanging it out between 12:00 and 18:00. Air at 36 % humidity, 6.8 °C and wind at 7.6 km/h: it will dry, but not quickly. How it is calculated
- Terrace between 18:00 and 23:00: 2 °C at 8 pm. Too cold to eat outside; the barbecue will have to wait. How it is calculated
- Starry sky between 22:00 and 2:00: 19 % average cloud cover tonight, 4 h of clear sky in a row, moon at 42 % (last quarter). A good night to look up. How it is calculated
