Yes it feels like fall but we still have a month to go and I not time to take it out for a while.I do not like touching it ever since it came close to ending me.Last night was a Great night to. sleep.Tonight should be better.Hopefully we get some rain tomorrow,we are dry around here,very.dry.The night it cooled off l was watching the radar and saw a line coming at us from the Northwest.I watched as the front hit the dry air and the rain just evaporated.Then I watched the temperatures go from mid 80's too 70's.We were at 77 and Albany,North and West were in the low 60's.One hour later the outside temp.was 65 but inside was still at 74 and sticky so the A/C had to stay on for one more night.The two windows at the far end away from the A/C we left open a bit to push that sticky air out.The next morning the A/C went off and let out a sigh.š„²
