Hi Slipfree: I live in the 'California' of Canada so our weather here has been very hot & dry, very little humidity. Last weekend it was 40C (104F), this week we are off to a cooler start only expecting highs of 28C (82F) today.
We did have a bit of rain a couple of nights ago so that has helped with the forest fires around here. Still a bit hazy from the drifting smoke though. I said to my DH this morning that it suddenly felt like autumn had come, because no matter how hot it gets during the day, it had dropped down to 12C last night (55F) and you get that cooler, fresher feeling in the air even though it's sunny and hot during the day. We leave all our doors & windows open all night (just the screens, lol) to cool our place off and then close everything up by 9 am. We have still had to use the central AC pretty much every day this past month, though. It usually just runs in the late afternoon/early evening after the heat of the day has been baking the house and the inside temp gets to 25C.
