Ask a Roaming Husky
Dear Roaming Husky,
It's starting to get hot in my apartment and I don't have AC. How can I stay cool?
-Uncomfortably Hot
Dear Uncomfortably Hot,
Even without a window unit or central AC, there are plenty of ways to stay cool during warm summer months. You can create good air circulation by opening your windows and facing one fan blowing in with another blowing out. Also, keep your blinds closed during the day to keep the temperature down.
