I always found car ads funny, when they list A/C as an "option." Kind of necessary down here. Down here, when we have days of 105 and whatnot, it barely gets to the mid-'80s at night. That means as soon as the sun comes up, it's aiming for 90 before lunch time. It can be pretty brutal.

Seattle amazed me, my first year there (2008 or 2009). I think the highs for a few days were 92 and 93. That's pretty toasty, especially without A/C. However, that was only for a half-hour or so and as soon as the sun went down, the ocean just sucked the heat off the city. I needed a wind-breaker, after dark.
