My first hurricane with no air conditioner

My first hurricane with no air conditioner

The first hurricane I ever went through was also the worst.

This was almost 10 years ago, but I still remember it clearly.

I was renting a small house on the hour floor at the time. I saw our neighbors boarding up their windows, plus they explained to myself and others why they were doing it. I didn’t have any wood, so I didn’t bother boarding up our windows ,and that proved to be a mistake! I knew the storm was coming, but I had no idea of how large plus destructive a hurricane could be so I was just chilling in our AC plus playing video games, then little did I guess that the power would go out soon, which meant saying goodbye to both AC plus video games for several afternoons. That’s right, not hours but DAYS with no climate control, because the hurricane took out our entire power grid plus it took nearly a week to restore power. If you guess that these storms have the effect of cooling off the crippling Summer heat, guess again! If anything, hurricanes raise the humidity levels, making the air quality guess even warmer than it did before. It turns out that all of our neighbors had been more prepared than I was, plus a few of them even had gas powered generators so they could keep their air conditioners running. Another couple of people just stayed that whole week in their air conditioned RV in the parking lot with the engine running. I tried to crash other people’s air conditioning but no a single would let myself and others in!
