HIPPYVALLEY Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Bedroom is 81F Shoulda listened to Blizz We threw some fans in the windows today and got the bedroom down from 78F to 72F in an hour. I'm stubborn, no AC until Memorial day or later and then only on oppressive days or for company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damage In Tolland Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Bedroom is 81F Shoulda listened to Blizz It's better to be prepared than swear. We all slept nice and cool with A/C peacefully humming all night. I'm sure a few others not to be named here put the air in, but would never admit it.

I counted 8 houses in my hood alone that had at least 1 , if not more in ,that were not in on Saturday morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CapturedNature Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Window fan FTW last night. No need for A/C nonsense. I tried that and usually do but it was still 70° at 10PM outside and the house was sitting around 80° with two fans blowing in the attic and two blowing on the second level. When the outside temp isn't going to cooperate, it's time to mechanically cool the space so I did. My rule of thumb is that if it's below 70 at 10PM I'll be OK with the window fan but if it's above, I'll be more comfortable with the AC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I usually get a good breeze so I opened everything up and stuck a fan in. Worked pretty well and I'm one that likes it cool. With nights in the 40s coming up this week..Should be just fine for awhile. This weekend looks like heat gets shunted well SW of us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it looks like the weekend is turning toward the cooler/damper side? Was looking more promising earlier. First weekend with the pool might be a bust.

Damage In Tolland Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Window fan FTW last night. No need for A/C nonsense. LOL..sucking in all that pollen.. Run your hands or a wet towel over the furniture, window sills etc..Totally yellow. It's on your couches, sheets etc..all that yellow..and it doesn't come off once it gets into the material. Not to mention your son breathing all that stuff in. Dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All our families growing up were fine, and people to this day with windows open are fine. Stop being ridiculous. That's great if you want your home to be like a tornado shelter, but I prefer to enjoy life and fresh air. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastalWx Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 It's possible a few decent storms may fire tomorrow. I see what BOX sees regarding dry air, but that's a good s/w moving through and still some residual moisture leftover. Models have some QPF too in NNE and the NAM has some storms moving through SNE. As usual, nothing terrible exciting..but it wouldn't shock me if some areas get a good storm in New England. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
