Third extended heat wave within 6 weeks.
The previous one exceeded 40°C, and the buildings not yet had time to completely cool down from that one before the third wave hit.
I was considering putting up a tent in my garden myself, but as I own a ground floor flat, the indoor temperatures did, with the help of some additional cooling measures, thankfully not exceeded 27°C.
That is surprising. I’ve had two in the last dacade, the last one bought 3 years ago and they are around 60dB which is standard from what I’ve seen. I checked the local midea models and they still say >60dB in their spec. No decent central or split system gets close to that kind of noise and personally I find it impossible to live with.
