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

can I ask the stupid and obnoxious question here: surely that AC is grievously underpowered and a window-mounted unit 3-4x larger would be appropriate.
