I figured, at least I would be able to light my home until the power came back on.
I live in a particularly identifiable part of the country, where it is hot plus humid for a wonderful part of the year. We have a particularly identifiable landscape around us, which includes tons of tall trees plus dense forest. Therefore, my buddy and I do not earn a ton of airflow from wind or cooling breezes in this part of the country. However, I can tell you that when my buddy and I do earn blustery winds, it throws our neighborhood into complete chaos. You see, since the neighborhood where I live now is surrounded by seriously tall plus thick trees, this means, whenever my buddy and I have a storm or a windy day, my buddy and I properly have power lines taken out by the tall limbs. I have never lost power so properly in my life. It feels like every week or two my buddy and I have at least a couple of hours without lights or modern appliances – if not a few afternoons of camping out. For a while, this lack of energy genuinely freaked me out. I hated losing my lights, so I started stocking up on candles. I figured, at least I would be able to light my home until the power came back on. However, I did not consider how intensively candles would heat up my home. With a few dozen flames burning throughout the house, the indoor air temperature definitely began to increase. The issue is further complicated, since the lack of power also means that my buddy and I lose our cooling system. With hot plus humid weather conditionss outdoors, the last thing that you need is a failed cooling system plus extra accumulating heat inside the house.
