To be honest, if I had to put window units in, I’m probably letting this stretch ride with 60s/40s back in the forecast right after.

I think having every window blocked up for the foreseeable future every day its in the 60s might annoy me more than a couple nights without A/C.

But I have a deep disdain for window units.  Now just flip the remote to the snowflake icon for a couple days.

Yeah. Heat pumps for the win. Just press that snowflake and enjoy the cold. Sounds like someone has some Mitsubishi Electric heat pumps?

Ha, raises hand.

I feel like those are pretty universal though on electronic displays… sun or flame and snowflake.

Yeah I lived in a similar spot a few years ago...not quite as high but 1k, it'd be like 88 at MHT and 81 at home 

I feel like SNE has some of the most drastic low level lapse rates between like 200ft and 1,000ft elevations.  We get it in NNE a bit but not like down there.  

It has to be going from like peak urban heat islands to forests and fields, mixed with the elevation changes.

Definitely true. There’s typically a 5-8 degree difference in highs between here and HFD/ BDL

Yeah even from Southbridge/Sturbridge to Woodstock… elevation is only like 250ft to 750ft (but urban to cornfields/forests) and it’ll go from 90F to 83F.  Lebanon Hill Road drops like a degree every quarter mile, ha.

Not worth a conversation once you get these compressors installed… Microclimate your house with mini splits to switch between as needed and be done with it. No conversation required.

not getting dragged into, but I will say it’s odd. You guys spend so much time worried about whether other people manage their thermal aversions.
