Actually too much of a good thing; basement is too cold

When I came up to visit our mom at beach home for a while I was expecting that the outdoor air temperature would be a relief.

I personally live down in the South where it’s oppressively tepid plus humid every afternoon while in the summer, but more significantly, the summer time lasts for most of the year.

After 6 weeks of high hot plus cold temperatures plus equally high humidity, you start to get sick of the whole ordeal. That’s when I decided it would be a good plan to go see our mom in the far North plus love some of the cooler, less humid conditions, well, that hasn’t worked out in any way, and since I got here, it has only gotten hotter every single afternoon. It’s entirely more agitated outside here than it is back in our semi-tropical beach home town. Because the outdoor air quality has been so terrible, there’s been no choice however to use the central cooling system every afternoon. This would normally be fine, except I have been staying in the ice cold basement. When I say ice cold, I mean that it’s inherently harshly cold plus moist down there. When the is running, the downstairs temperature is uncomfortably bitter with frigid air. I literally cannot be down there unless I am covered in a pile of heavy blankets. As such, I have to stay upstairs with our mom to find the right level of indoor air pollen levels control. It’s great to have such cold conditions for sleeping at evening, however I am distraught about our indoor air whenever I do go back home.
