People from the "hotter" regions, how do you deal with the heat? - eviltoast

I am from Eastern Europe and this is the hottest summer on my memory. For at least 3 consecutive years the heat is breaking all records.

This stuff is unbearable, I can’t even play video games on my laptop, because it warms up very fast and the keyboard becomes uncomfortable for me to use.

So, could you please share any useful tips on how do you survive the summer?

    I need AC for about 6 months out of the year (used to be three, maybe three and half) here in the east/south US. The humidity is so bad it makes 90F seem like 110F and even the shade won’t cool you down and it drops very little when the sun goes down.

    I’m replying because my electrical panel is being replaced right now and I have no power (the router is on a batt backup)…it heated up in here and I’m able to psychologically deal with it for now…if the installation goes south and I’ll be without power for more than a few hours I’ll take the cat and head to my sister’s place :)

      Damn, good luck to you, man. I was lucky enough to have a thunderstorm at night so today is not as hot as it was yesterday

        We had a cold front move through yesterday…dropped it about a degree. haha.

        I LOVE thunderstorms at night! If one passes during the day, it just makes it 10x more humid .
