It wasn't even hot enough on the river to jump in and cool off today. It's already down to 60 so it looks like it will be cold again tonight! Just think of all the energy people can save by turning off their AC! Oh wait, nobody pays attention to the weather and everyone still has their AC on.  We didn't even have to waste electricity last night by running window fans it was so cool. The 15 day forecast looks like a lot of the same weather except for tomorrow which will be a little warmer.

I am beginning to think your thermometer is reading low. Lows 50s in Hamilton last night. Plus, when every one I saw had us over 100* a few weeks ago, you had us at 96 or something. I think you are playing mental games with your wife.

My house was in the upper 60's when I left for work this morning. We have a thermometer that records the high and low temp each day. And I just put new batteries in it a week ago! And what's a wife? 
The 96 was the high reading by the NWS at Trenton when you saw 100 in the Hopewell area. Most of those thermometers get exposed to some sunlight so they read a little higher than the actual temp.

I had my AC switched onto fan mode last night, so that helped nature a little bit. If I was able to have an open window with my A/C installed, I would have just done that....

Yeah, yeah, likely story. Of course it is hotter in the sun, but that temperature doesn't count?
I thought you were married. No wonder you can buy cars.

central air FTW. AC only kicks in when temperature inside the house reaches a certain point or it just works until 10pm or any other time i specify whichever one i choose.

Please don't tell me you leave your computer running 24/7 unless it's being used as a web server. There's no reason to leave a computer running espcially if you're not in the house. It wastes energy by running, puts out heat which you then waste more energy by running AC to cool!  Seriously, did they teach any of you kids anything about energy conservation in school? It sure doesn't sound like it.

I only keep one of my computers running 24/7. Although it doesn't host this site, there is plenty of info. on it that I like having 24/7 access too. I used to keep both of my desktops running all the time ( Click here for normal uptime), but I don't use the second PC as much anymore.
