Three nights ago it was 50F at midnight and I turned on the furnace to keep the indoor temperature from falling below 65F (below 65F my blanket and quilt don't keep me warm enough, I'm a cold sleeper), and then last night it was midnight and still 78F outside.

It takes time to get used to hot weather, and we've switched from a cool summer to a hot one here in the Bay Area from one day to the next.<br /><br />Thanks to good insulation, I've managed to keep my South Bay house at 80F, though that does require closing all the blinds to keep the sunshine out. Oh, well, fewer distractions to keep me from writing my thesis. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9612609.post-92087932182353446632010-08-24T22:47:28.123-07:002010-08-24T22:47:28.123-07:00We were at 106° today before 2pm.
