The low here is the same as Leo's.  Normally, our lows are in the
60's this time of year, but I still find that a box fan in the window
at night cools everything off plenty.  I would use a swamp-cooler
like Leo if I could, but Ohio's climate is just too humid.

Our lows this week vary considerably with a range from 74 to 75.
Highs will be 90 to 94
Could not survive without AC  Swamp coolers don't work here.

Amazing how humans have adapted to both hot and cold climates.  Growing
up in a fairly moderate climate, Rarely saw zero or below or above 85.
I prefer not to adapt to the extremes so AC here is a must for me.

I grew up in a moderate clime too. The first morning we spent in the
Pacific Northwest was a real eye-opener for me. I had never felt an ice
cold rug before. My wife thought it was pretty funny.
"This is a temperate climate!"
Oh really?
OTOH, being raised in Hawaii has an advantage - I can go to almost any
state of the union (or world) and not be fazed by the cost of living.
More than likely, prices of things will bring a smile upon my face.
OTOH, most places will be too hot or too cold for me.
