The questions: How to stay comfortable in a Heatwave without Airconditioning?
Lorien Silverleaf Evaporative cooling; wet linen scarf.
Jacqueline Kim 1. A fan. 2. Cold showers to cool off. Cold showers take two minutes or so but make such a big difference. You have to jump into it. It is shocking at first (prepare to yelp), but delicious after. 3. Don't cook meals requiring more than one stove top fire at a time (so nothing that requires the oven coming on). We have been eating all manners of salads, gazpachos, and drinking a lot of ice cold infusions (of cut cucumber or oranges or mint). Sangrias too.
Britt Cool Yep, fans. Sit right in front of them
Lorien put a scarf on the fan!! It cools the air even more.
Sally Hovey Wet clothes and a fan
Karl Aldinger If you can spare some water, misting jets on fans drop temps in our greenhouse, for example.
