Hotness in Seatle!


Well it got to by like 85-90 here in Seattle. Which is too hot for Seattle. We aren't used to it.

I had to stay in my room today to finish up on my last paper. My computer is OCd. What does that spell? HOT! I remembered that I had an AC unit in the attic from last summer (a great purchase ) so i got it down and thew it in my window ghetto style (you'd laugh if I had a camera). Now my room is frigid and I made some headway on my paper. People like to stop off in my room and admire the coolness but I have to kick them out case that just throws the heat into my room. Things are looking good

Rock on and get an AC unit for the summer. It looks like it might be pretty hot.

Down here in Oregon it's a fairly average temperature, 90 degrees.

Doesn't everyone have AC these days?

Just because we have it, doesn't mean that we can/are allowed to use it.

Hahaha, it's not even summer-time yet, and we've already hit 113 here in vegas. But our heat is dry, so it's not like in seattle. Anyway, the AC runs 24/7 out here in EVERY home. No wonder Calli get's brown-outs all the time.

I don't have AC. It hit like low 90's today with 80+ percent humidity.

And I rode my bike 5 miles in it. That sucked. Hard.

I have no A/C what so ever in my house and sometimes it can be in the mid 90's in my room so then I have to cut back on the O/C. I want to install a big a/c unit in my room to keep it nice and cool. I ride up to 30 miles in this weather on my bike but only gets bad going up hills the rest is nice and cool.

its been haging around the 80's or so here in ohio.

We have central air in our house, but my room is downstairs in the basement ( the basment is like a second floor, doesn't look like a normal basement ) and my room is SURROUNDED by Concrete. all my walls, floor and celing is Concrete, except for my wooden door. so it stays a constant temp in here, but doens't get very cold, because the AC doesn't really reach down here that well, and with my computer on, my room can get kinda warm, but not as hot as it gets outside.
