[SixClub] Sorry Guys

[Gene]

98 ... man that would almost require me to breakout a parka :)

I know about your wx .. usually accompanied by high humidity which I'll pass
on and keep the 100+ temps. Our problem of recent years out here is the
build up of housing has brought pools, lawns and trees- all which require
water and give off humidity. 25 years ago when I came west to the desert,
anything over 8% RH was a humid day. Now the norm is around 18-22% most days
and that is the lower threshold where swamp coolers, which is the main
cooling here, start to lose efficiency. My shack gets to around 85-88 degF
every afternoon and the cooler (6500 CFM) runs 24x7 lately). And
Californians haven't had a decent electric bill in years.
