Default Where's Mr. Sunshine?

I hear it's going up to 80F today!! Maybe this means the summer is going to start back up again?
It sure seems like it's been too cool and rainy for too long!! (No global warmth here)..

So, today, maybe the solar screens will come in handy!!

We are finding the down-side of Solar screens.
Not too useful if the weather in your area is getting cooler every summer.

If you live in the NE and have been thinking about buying some Solar screens,
you might want to hold off a couple of years, to see what happens with 'Climate Change'..
Is the Sunspot Cycle About to Stop? - News Blog - SkyandTelescope.com

I'm starting to think about taking them off, until we actually get some hot sunny days.
Since the windows stay shut during cool weather, we don't need screens to keep out bugs.
Removing/replacing them, might turn out to be a small amount of work, if the weather trend doesn't change.

Last 5 days..


My wife does not want me to use the Sanyo to warm up the house,
so we are wearing winter clothes and using blankets while watching TV..

My kid called yesterday. She had a problem with the central HVAC system.
No heat!! LOL!!

At least when we go for walks or bike rides, we don't have to hear the racket of all the ACs running..
Just need to dress warm and dry..
