How is everyone coping in the heat?

[CharlesHarris]

Here in West Virginia we are having normal mid-Atlantic summer weather with daytime high temps of 30-35 degs C and cool nights 20-25 degs C. Up on the mountain there is always a breeze and while it is humid and muggy we view that as normal. Next few days we are expecting a heat wave where highs may reach 38 degs C, which is noteworthy at 400 metres above sea level.

We do have window A/C units in each of the bedrooms and in the living room which we run as-needed, but the ceiling fans get the most work at night when we open up the house to bring in the night breezes. At daylight we button up and set the A/C 9n an economy setting to cycle as needed to maintain the indoor temps at. 25 degs C.
