anyway, its upper 90s in Seattle, feels maybe mid-upper 70s inside. looks like I made it through the early morning sun assault on the eastern window. going to call this a smashing victory. thanks everyone who came along for the ride--I hope everyone else in PNW is holding tight

what about those freestanding AC units that don't need to sit in a window? they sit in the room and have a duct you run out of the window
