    I am so flippin pissed. I ordered a new AC online for our bedroom the other day. Got delivered yesterday, installed it in the window. Turn it on and (I am assuming it's the fan) makes a super loud noise. Like the fan is loose or maybe its rubbing against something. I'll have to take the casing off later but I hope it isn't defective. 

    Good luck with that! It may be a small piece of the styrofoam insulation hitting the fan blades. Three years ago we replaced our large first floor unit with a 16000 BTU Frigidaire unit. SO very happy with the it! It runs on a 120 volt circuit and is amazingly efficient.  We were so impressed that we're buying a matching smaller BTU unit for the bedroom. The old Goldstar POS sounds like an old diesel truck every time the compressor starts.

    No AC here yet. Open windows and ceiling fans are fine. I can’t install yet anyway since we are having new siding installed and the last of our old windows replaced. Hopefully next year’s project is the mini splits. 

    Just install the first floor unit yesterday.  The bedroom unit went in a few days ago. I was sick with Mono a couple weeks ago and as soon  as it started to clear, I was sweating my ass off at night!

    I still hate dews and excessive heat, doubt you'll ever win me over on that.  It's mostly dews I dislike, dry 90F is usually fun.  I love the perfect outdoor weather though... those deep blue skies, 70s with long daylight.  Big fan of late spring and early summer before the dews come.  Honestly, this time of year may be my favorite of the year.  No bugs, no mosquitoes yet, long daylight, warm afternoons, comfortable sleeping weather with no A/C.

    Intermountain western US would be perfect for me.  Nights in the 40s, days in the 80s all summer long at the ski towns with morning sun and afternoon scattered storms every single day for three months.

    That's one thing I love about certain parts of AZ, it can be 105 and feel far cooler than here when its 75 and super dews.

    1982 I was 14..it was awesome. Legit Blizzard conditions with powder, no wet stuff.… cold/frigid airmass. 20 inches plus. Out of school for 3 days.  

    Yep! I was 12. I was already following the weather and none of the adults at the time thought we were going to get any snow. I also remember it was pretty warm at least a couple weeks leading up to the storm because we had already done yard clean up and run over the lawn with the mower once to clean up winter crap

    Was a wild night . Gusts were easily 55+

    Your area must have eaten that all up, we have barely had any wind at all out this way all night, and it's dead calm and snowing now. One of the very few times in the last four decades I've seen the number one member of the fraud 5 actually happen
