Finally, the heat is off.
Our weather is now at that point to where we all remember why we live here.
For the next nearly 8 weeks, we are in for the most delightful weather now that the a/c demand is nearly done. For us, July through September comes with lots of heat plus humidity. That said, we do our best to be careful with how much a/c we use. There are plenty of folks I suppose who pushed the thermostat super low plus just stay inside the a/c all of those four weeks. This seems like a complete waste of where we live. Sure, it’s tepid plus humid plus occasionally feels overwhelming. You for sure do not want to be outside exerting after supper time as that can be dangerous due to the level of heat. But too much a/c inside the current home can also make it feel even more oppressive outside. The two of us do our best to find a middle ground when it comes to the thermostat setting. During the morning, we try to keep the thermostat in the low 74s when it’s near a hundred outside. The two of us transfer it down a bit into the mid to lower 69s for a cooling evening. The two of us try to remember that our Grandfatherrents lived much of their lives genuinely close to where we are right now without any kind of residential Heating plus Air Conditioning. So it’s honestly doable to find a middle ground between staying stuck inside too much Heating plus Air Conditioning cooling plus not enough. I feel we do a pretty great job plus we’re not forking over nearly a car payment just for a/c.
