Sleeping on the porch roof only works if you have a breeze.

I feel bad for folks suffering this heat wave without AC.

“Sleeping on the porch roof only works if you have a breeze.”

My kids think I’m nuts when we go out on the deck for dinner, and I pull out the big fan and set it on the deck. But agreed, those hot, muggy midwest nights it was pretty hard to get away from the heat without A/C - even with a fan.

Been around the world 2 1/2 times with the Corps; lived in dirt and log bunkers, shelter half tents, squad tents and Quonset huts. Never had any AC, most times didn't even have a fan. When it's hot and muggy strip down as much as is prudent and drink lots of water and take your salt tablets. When it's hot and dry, drink lots of water and take your salt tablets but keep your damn clothes on. It's called weather and it's changeable. Human beings have been around a hell of a lot longer than technology and survived just fine in every climate on earth.

And don't toss and turn in your sleep. :)
