This has actually been. Pretty interesting experiment. Our townhouse has always been bloody hot. Even at 25 degrees.

I’m getting up at 6, have my coffee outside and setup some industrial fans outside blowing air in and through the place. Cools off pretty quick to whatever it was 26 this morning.

As soon as the sun hits our windows the place gets to 30
+ immediately. So I close the windows/shades early, crank the AC and it can’t keep up. Place settles at 31 degrees until the sun is over head (not on windows) and AC begins to catch-up through the day to 27ish despite actually getting hotter outside. We left for the day yesterday after the morning “heat up” and came back to the house at 30 with windows closed and AC off. Not bad. Some exterior window shades would probably help a lot.
