Me i would get a cheap window unit just for the bed room and camp out there... (cheaper then staying in a hotel, which would be my other opt)
I can't help with the cooler weather either... 730 it was already 82 and humid!
Like someone else said keep all the blinds, shades closed, doors closed, Keeping the sun out will help a bit....

QuiltingGrannie - you have my sympathy. about half of the neighborhood lost electricity yesterday morning, but luckily it was back on when I got home.

I can take the heat, but please send rain!

We used to put a large chunk of ice in a bucket in from of the fan and it sent cool air as we slept. It works and at least allows some sleep time. Hang in there.

Take a hot water bottle and put in ice cold water lay it at the end of the bed on a towel. If you can keep your neck and feet cool you will sleep better. I pray that they will be able to get to very soon. I wear a cool tie around my neck it does help, Huddy keep the air at 84.

Why would anyone suffer through being so miserable in the heat when window units are so inexpensive? I don't understand that.
