That's what I said when I first moved here. Homes in Seattle don't come with an air-conditioner nor do they have basements...you can have air-conditioner installed or you can have your home builder add it as an option. For the most part there really isn't any need for it cause summer here is very nice.

Expensive but everything is on sale...20% off on 650K is still 520K.

That's cool. I've been all over this country, but one area I've never made it to is the Pacific NW. Need to get out there sometime.

When I first moved to Florida it took me a long time to get used to how few houses have basements and second/third floors. Sooo many one floor houses. It's just much more economical to keep cool. I'm a northern boy. All the houses have A/C and heat, and basements too.

This weather is too hot for me. You can't do anything outside. It's hot day and night. Our area (Winchester/Stephens City), hasn't seen a drop of rain in 6 weeks, so I haven't had to mow grass for more than a month.

The almanac and some old guys i work with say that this summer is supposed to be the worst drought in over 500 years. yay. And the guy i work beside says that the next precipitation we get will be in the form of snow showers.

And right now, the way things are, i'd love to have some cold and snow. I'm like others....my body aches for October and the cool weather that goes with us. I officially hate summer. Especially since it stayed in the 20's up until May here, and then we get this....totaly BS. I hate summer.

This kind of heat sucks, but I'll still gladly deal with this over the snow and cold.

Did you have to shovel????

I've got AC in my car, in my office, and my home stays at 80 (which I like). If I want 3 feet of snow, I will go to the mountains!

Yes. I'm in the mountains and my driveway is a third of a mile. 3' snow > 100*
