Feels like 45 tomorrow. Send help.

AC has been going nonstop all day. We have it set to 21 and around 3pm it was 23 in here. Right now its 21.5 inside so hopefully the AC will turn off soon. RIP our hydro bill.

I wish we had hydro, been out since 3:00

OK, new fear unlocked. What do you do?

Last summer on a hot day we went shopping at IKEA. LOTS of people just sitting on couches on their phone. I'd never do this. You think hydro one/Ottawa would cover a hotel bill on a 35+ day?

7am and the AC is already running. I bet it wont turn off until well after midnight

Back up generator and a Generlink. Only about half the houses around us have their own backup power. You have to be self sufficient when you live in the country, as no power also means no water.
