Admittedly, I giggle a little bit when I see y'all talking about hot weather. But to be sure, yes, 36C/97F is in the effing hot territory for most people. And it doesn't seem y'all have homes setup with central air conditioning and all that jazz we absolutely need here. I've been without electricity for an extended period of time with just fans, so yeah, even lower than that is really really hot and very difficult to sleep.

Nothing beats the low hum of a window unit when sleeping. Not sure what you use, but if you can fit one they should keep the room pretty dang cold if they're sized correctly... (and generally inexpensive in the US). And they really do a good job of using humidity to your benefit if you're in that climate zone.

We're in wet summer mode now, so not as hot as it would be at night, but we had a mild drought and lows were in the high 70s/low 80s overnight (21~26C). I'm sure that'll be back in a few weeks or so..
