I dried a brushed cotton sheet outdoors yesterday in Sussex. Dry day, sunny (occasionaly) and slightly breezy.
It's the air speed that seems to be important if drying outside in winter, rather than the temperature.
Spare a thought for folks living on Shetland or other Scottish islands. Even in summer drying outdoors is hit and miss.
+1 A couple of days ago washing was put on the line. It was dry and breezy. 3 hours later the washing was brought in very slightly damp but the wind had done most of the work.
Unfortunately, here (suburbs of Manchester), it's been a nice day one minute and halining or throwing it down the next.
Yesterday I was going to the shed (for my model railway) and on two occassions, I was just about to open the door, when it suddenly started hammering down for a few minutes.
