Since no one else in the thread has mentioned it, do you have wildfire smoke in addition to the heat? Even a few days at a lower aqi (75-100) can make me feel that weighed down/tired feeling in my body, in addition to the headaches. Where I am in has been like that almost every day in June and July.
To combat this I close windows and have an air purifier on. You can build a corsi-rosenthal box or just duct tape a single high quality furnace filter to the back of a box fan for even cheaper.
I think this joke failstate is still on fire, yeah. Less reporting but the skies have looked smogged over. Solid ideas...
IQAir has charts going back to early July. I find them more accurate/reliable than Environment Canada for live data and forecasts as well.
