Today in Vanderhoof
- No washing outside today: rain, or a risk of rain, covers the hours when it could dry. How it is calculated
- Black ice likely between 5:00 and 9:00: rain or drizzle falling on ground close to freezing (3 h affected). Roads, pavements and windscreens can ice over within minutes; slow down. How it is calculated
- Best time to air the house: between 20:00 and 23:00. The outdoor dew point drops to −5.2 °C; once warmed to 20 °C, that air holds only 18 % humidity, against 50 % in a typical home: opening the windows dries the house. How it is calculated
- Terrace and barbecue between 18:00 and 23:00: dry but cool, 6 °C at 8 pm and wind at 10 km/h. Wrap up warm, or move indoors. How it is calculated
