Hopefully this year is an outlier (although I’m not ignoring Climate Change) … even up here near Boston, I’ve had windows closed and AC on most of the summer. We’ve had way above typical heat but also way above typical humidity and rain. Even when the temperature is comfortable, the humidity is not.

So far so good today: last night was perfect for sleeping with windows open and this morning is nice
