My central air gave up the ghost last month after it reached 108F. I was lucky, too, to have a portable A/C I bought for my daughter 10 years ago. It was so humid I had to run it inside of a huge litter box to collect the gallon of water it sucked out of the air overnight. I replace my whole central air system three weeks ago ($$) and have been comfortable ever since. I just wish my garage was air conditioned so I could spend more time looking at my VX without sweating!
