Yesterday a violent storm ripped through the Northeast. Although it hasn't been verified, it would seem a tornado took down a few buildings south of here.
The sky turned very dark and had a greenish/gray cast and lots of lightning. There was no damage were we live, but it has left us wondering if every storm will carry a tornado watch or warning now. Previous to this year, these warnings were few and far between.
Normally, we do not need a/c until August and then for just a few weeks. This year we have had to turn it on early.
I am very happy to turn it off today for many reasons. One is to save energy and cost. Another reason is because I love the windows open and don't like the isolation and noise of the a/c. Our 100 year old home is not a candidate for central air due to some structural constraints, so the drone of various window units can be noisy. (Of course, I am very grateful for a/c and feel very bad for those who don't have it for whatever reason.)
The weekend is around the corner. Hopefully, the weather will be a little calmer and cooler for everyone experiencing summer.
As always,
enjoy the day...
happy weekend...
and wishes for lovely weather!

Yes, I would LOVE a/c right about now. The incessant humidity in a home with no a/c wears on me after a bit. Ah, but I could be so environmentally smug, even though I wouldn't until THAT is all that gets me through the day. :-)
I'm not sure my post was clear. It was about relo, tags are the clue. Update in my comments.
yes, we are experiencing these storms, as well. tornado sirens and all.
