You're lucky it's only 80 degrees. It won't be too long before we're in the three digits here until maybe September if we're lucky. If not, October or November.

I guess you can do things like keep them in a room with no electric appliances on. Those add heat when they're on. Making sure the windows are well sealed and no heat comes in, or cool air escapes. And keep the thermostat at the same temperature. One of the worst things to do is be turning it on and off all the time. If it's a bigger place it will take longer to cool, although not so long to heat back up, unfortunately.

Where I am (northern California) it's raining ATM, but this is only the second real rain of the winter. And except for that it's been weirdly warm -- the trees started to bloom in February!


My trees are starting to blossom, too! I just posted something about this in daywalker's "is it me or is weather weird this year" thread!

There has not been any snow here at all. It's been warm for the past few days.
