I made note.
96 degrees 94% humidity at the time of death.
The air conditioner died.
Service came on Saturday as a dog, a husband and wife were zapped of all energy from the very hot house. He could not help. Sending someone on Sunday with parts needed.
They did not sleep. 2nd floor was brutal but nighttime temps were 80s so can't open windows. All fans going. Not much sleep was had. Hubby in his chair on the 1st floor. Wife on the sofa with fans blowing hot air on them. The poor dog just panted. The husband turned in Mr. Cranky Pants. Lovely evening.
HVAC men are to arrive sometime on Sunday between 10 - 12p.
Or will they die from heatstroke first? Stay tuned

Go in the garage. Sit in your car and turn on the AC. I'm sure everything will be OK.
A portable AC for the bedroom?
Just in case?
I'm so sorry, though, that sucks.
Gee Mike what could go wrong?
Ami, he just left. its cooling, but will take a long time to cool the house down. I don't care, I'm just thrilled it's working.
Ick, I got cranky just reading this. Stay cool, Peg.
They never go out when you don't really need them to work. Glad your service came today.
Glad you could get it fixed. Hoping everything is all right now.
I remember complaining about being hot as a kid and my mother told me to think cold thoughts. I sat sown a drew a picture of Santa making his Christmas Eve sleigh rounds in his underwear. Don't roll your eyes. It really helped! It's all in the mind.
Olga, that's funny. We drank lots of water and laughed while hosing down our dog at 1am. It's been a weekend to remember.
Jamie, thx. The house is cooling down....we are getting there. 😁
I know people survived before A/C--I was one of them but mercy, don't ask us to do it now. So glad you are back with cool air coming out of the vents.
Normally that would have been a good time to go to the movies, or out to eat. Glad it got fixed.
Having just been in Texas, where it rained, the sun came out and heated everything back to 98 or so ~ it was like being in a sauna. I am glad your a/c is working again, because sleeping and sweating just doesn't work for me!!
Patti, oh you know I agree. I'm a spoiled brat.
Bluzdude, that is what Rick said, remember when we lived in a 2nd floor flat and we'd go to the movies to get cool? Yep.
It's a Crazy - I'm so sorry you had to learn about this kind of summer. But now you know our southern heat that I talk about. It is a sauna. Humidity makes such a difference and my friends on the west coast don't get it. It is vastly different. I am always soaking through a shirt after a short walk with the dog. My hair gets flat as a pancake and honestly I hate sauna's and will never go in one so you know I don't like it for my outside air to be a sauna. I bet you're glad to be home where it's dry.

Did somebody say Black Cloud?
