Ginx snewx Posted September 17, 2013 Author Share Posted September 17, 2013 Yep. It may be cool, but everything gets that sticky feel to it from constant exposure to humid salty air which isn't good for things inside your home. Living on the water is nice, but you still need AC or at least a really good dehumidifier.When did you live on the ocean front? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a reason for that. I've never been to a beach house that didn't have ac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I am guessing you never lived on the open ocean front,the very muggy days were few and far between. Just inland or if you were on the sound, pond or harbor yea but something about the ocean front was different. Salt air, falling asleep to the sounds of the waves, ah those were great times. I had an ex that lived on the water. Humid is humid no matter what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoastalWx Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 High temps are certainly cooler which can lead to a cooler house overall, but don't say it's cool at night in late July through August. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powderfreak Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I had an ex that lived on the water. Humid is humid no matter what.Yeah, I would've used an AC a couple nights this summer, but to me it's not worth buying one for two nights a year. I think it's something that if I had, I would use a lot more than necessary...just use it because its there. The nighttimes are when it really comes down to it...sure it gets really hot in the day but if it drops quickly into the 60s as the sunsets, after being up near 90F, then the Dendrite window fan special works really well. Now, in Burlington or the Champlain Valley...yes AC is needed. Without the decoupling that happens almost immediately at sundown in the mountain valleys, BTV can be sitting there with a furnace south wind and 80+ temps at midnight while its 65F and calm at MVL/MPV. The ocean is the opposite...cooler daytime but warmer nighttime, which is sort of when you want your house to be the most comfortable. Nothing disrupts life like awful sleeping conditions.

I could count on my one hand the number of days where a fan was insufficient in the two years I lived there. Always seemed to be a cooling breeze flowing inland.

mfastx Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Impressive that BOS low last night was a new record. Chilly day today. Forecast on my iPhone is for 43 tonight. Would that be a record for the 18th? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wxmanmitch Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 33.4° F for a low here this morning. Widespread frost, but not a freeze. Currently 45.5° F, but I don't think we'll go as low tonight. I'm thinking a 36 or a 37 ought to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapturedNature Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Freefallin', yeah I'm freefallin' 43F 41° now....you're really falling off nicely and should be in the 30s in no time. You're within a couple of degrees of your forecasted low! As Quincy pointed out, those frost advisories look out of whack, especially considering you're one of the coldest spots in SNE right now.
