Today in Waverley
- Best time to air the house: between 9:00 and 11:00. The outdoor dew point drops to 4.6 °C; once warmed to 20 °C, that air holds only 36 % 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 11:00 and 16:00. Air at 65 % humidity, 13.2 °C and wind at 15.1 km/h: it will dry, but not quickly. How it is calculated
