How Long does it take for my Sims Clothes to Dry on a Clothes Line?

My sim hung her clothes up to dry on the first day of spring at least two springs ago in my current game. It's now mid fall number 2 and they're still soaking wet. Her home lot has had the sunny aspect since I made her and built her house. At this point the clothesline and her clothes are just lawn decoration.

Do you have Seasons EP? I read that rain will affect the drying. Perhaps place the clothesline sheltered, if possible?

Curious anyone having issue with the laundry not drying on the clothes line (off-grid trait). My sim in on an island in Sulani and it's about to go on day 4 of them still dripping! This started happening after the recent update. So now I can refill the tub (off-grid) but now the clothes are not drying. It's day 10 of 28 for Spring. No days of raining but will be raining tomorrow (day 11 of 28). So curious if anyone else is experiencing this? If this happened for you before the update?

Has it been raining? If it rains, your clothes get wet again.

I'm sometimes having issues with the laundry not drying, esp. if there is a dryer on the lot. I didn't play with the buggy off the Grid lot trait yet so I cannot comment on that.

I've been playing an off-grid household and the clothes do dry on the lot, but sometimes it takes a long time!

My off-grid household is the most challenging household I've played for a while! A commune with a couple of slobs, not enough bathrooms, they are uncomfortable so much of the time! :D

I am actually having the same issue. I have seasons and it does rain, but I'm in the summer and it has not rained the entire week. Though days are going by quickly, it's been 10-14 sim days and they are just dripping. I even reset the object to see if it was just bugged, and still nothing (This was during Spring, I waited 20 sim days). I have a hamper and now have to rid of it because clothes are constantly piling up.

Get her to take the clothes off the line. Chances are the line's broken and that's why they're not drying (but it win't show as broken with clothes on it)
If the line is broken, after it's been repaired it should work normally again.

Some times it can take over 20 hours for me, seasons rain don't help either, I since stopped using them, I use the dryer or nothing at all.

I have noticed this is often the case. Occasionally the line also just seems to glitch, even though it's not broken. Either way, the best thing to do is take the clothes off the line and then rehang them. At this point, if they aren't dry after two days, especially if it hasn't been raining, I just automatically remove them and retry.
