Do you need A/C in Bellingham during the summer?
Hi, I am wondering how much A/C is needed in the summer in Bellingham? Does it get hot enough to need one?

It's more or less unnecessary there. The climate is pretty dry and temperate in the summer. From what I remember it's usually a bit cooler than the surrounding areas, probably because of the proximity to all the waterways around the region (I don't know, I'm definitely no meteorologist). At any rate, definitely nothing like Phoenix in that regard

Thanks. We are looking at renting a big farm house that does not have A/C so worst case I can install window units if need be. Do you know the average summer temp there?

No. Air conditioning is not necessary, and you almost certainly can't find housing with it.
Have you researched the weather information? Here's the City-Data BELLINGHAM page. Scroll halfway down for extremely informative weather charts which will tel you far more than you've asked:

Well good! As you can see, in B'ham with high summer temps in the low 70s and high summer humidity in the high 50%s, there's no need for A/C. You'll be able to breathe

Wouldn't help. If it happens over here, the next thing that happens to one is Applebees serves one overcooked, complete with a machete and small pitchfork to help cut one up. Around here, 'lemon' is what you buy from the dealers down on Columbia Drive.

The tableware sounds so cute!!
"Lemon".... we're getting into regional cultural references of which I am unaware. Does it come in a baggie?
