Cool and cloudy this morning. A/C? I've been wearing a sweater inside. 58°F right now, probably dropped to the low 60s in part of the house. Cozy weather even if a bit cooler than I prefer, but fine for this time of year. If the suns breaks through it might warm very fast.

How does your house cool so easily?? Low this morning at LEX was 59° and it's 74 inside.

That's what I want to know. I'm going to assume 1 or more of the following... no new insulation, no new windows, High ceilings, No trees around blocking a breeze, East-West cross ventilation.

There's no way a house would cool off that fast after being in the 70s or 80s during the day with sun

Edit... No wonder... He was at 51F at midnight then He dropped to the 40s overnight. Nevermind. That's why.


While I was in the 60s at midnight and mid 60s by 6am

40 C in early May is definitely impressive.



Lately it seems like all the strong storms are hitting here at night, and I'm missing them yesterday was supposed to feature strong storms and heavy rain down here and all we got was boring light rain all day, after receiving heavy storms the night before. Then last night again some heavy storms came through, part of the screen on my porch got ripped off from strong winds last night.

Good. Shhhh! Don't jinx it! lol

By the way... Anyone realize how summerish we got with temps (many times higher than forecast) lately?

Dry ground helping. No good rains in a while. From that report I read to keeping an eye on that factor, seems like it does indeed help make the air warmer when it's drier than normal.

But I have a Dillemma..

Do I root for rains to come to keep future temps down a bit but sacrifice muggier air? Or Keep it dry so it doesn't get too muggy around here but it easily gets hot. Damn. Cant win. lol

We have wet ground and still warmer than CT!

All the rain we got this spring with the current temperature pattern is a winning formula.
