[CODawn]

Thank you @DorothyMH

 

[JCU]

No one else in my house seems to appreciate the need for AC when it gets to 20° outside. Heat rises! The upstairs gets warm. And then add in humidity? Give me all the AC!

I hope your allergies subside soon.

 

[CODawn]

Thank you @JCU. I just can't deal with heat.

 

[JCU]

Dry heat is fine for me (I used to summer in Tennessee when I was a kid and loved 35+ heat), but humidity? I melt!
