If the temps are soaring to extremes where you live, have you ever witnessed a squirrel splooting? While it appears adorable, I feel for these little guys just trying to find some relief in these hot summer months.

Where I live, the summer months are insanely hot, but...it's also the rainy season, so the squirrels and other wildlife get a reprieve. I have seen a few squirrels however, laying under cars in my neighborhood to cool off.

I've seen squirrels splooting on tree limbs around my apt. We're only in the mid 80's here right now. But it's supposed to reach triple digits next week. I just keep my windows shut and turn on my high velocity fan. It's like cooling off in a hurricane.

I have central air...it would be a death sentence without it. lol So, does this fan make you feel cooler - it's not just moving hot air around?

The air stays cooler with my windows closed so yeah it circulates cooler air. (About 82 degree)
