Good. I want my winter back.

What if it doesn’t come back?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 months ago

You act like permafrost has started melting or something

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 months ago

They all come back!

It's been baking here the last couple weeks. We finally got some cooler air and some rain yesterday. Something like 73°F last night as my wife and I waited outside the restaurant for our valet driver. I was wearing a long sleeve button down and wasn't being murdered by heat. In early July. It was a miracle. We just kept asking each other what is this weather?It's only supposed to be 85-90 degrees for the next several days. It'll be nice for my air conditioning to not have to struggle to keep it cooler than 80°F indoors

September is only a couple months away. I can't wait.

Get your outside coil cleaned.

If the system is big enough for the house, there should be no reason it can’t maintain under 80 degrees unless something is wrong with it.

Check the filter in the house and check the outside coil for dirt and debris.

Appreciate the advice. I change the filter every month on the 21st and clean the coil each March. We have really drafty early 70s windows.

Might get my refrigerant checked.

I like not having to shovel the yard to do my job. If you don't like the Sumner weather move somewhere cooler.

Lol I dig holes for a living. We have to clear the ground for gound covering to keep damage to a minimum. Every little bit of snow in the middle of my work space makes that job hard either later when trying to pull all our stuff back out due to it melting and making it a mud pit. Or refrezzeing to all my boards. Or right off the bat. Ever had to wade thru feet of snow.? It doesn't crush and compact nice. So it would seem prudent to reduce its impact as much as possible. Usually I use a large 72 inch snowblower for the heavy lifting but we clear all the way down to the grass and then even further using paddle brooms to brush as much away as possible and usually finishes with a little hand shoveling. When done it looks like a fall lawn. Once that has been done our gound coverings can be placed. Sometimes wood sheets but usually a uhmw panel ....

I don't like the idea of having to deal with the snow just because your a little warm. Move.
