By night, it’s 30+ inside. At least I’m not in Portugal or Spain where I think I read it will be 46+ this week. My husband almost bought an ac for us in may, but decided against. Now, you can’t buy one in the whole country.

Your heatwave is my normal weather. :'( Of course AC is the rule here in the southern US, not the exception. Stay cool. If the humidity is low enough you might try a swamp cooler. Oh yeah and use Mack's recipe for lemonade with lemonade ice.

Those climates are not meant for human habitation and were only colonized after the invention of ac, we however live since time immemorial in a temperate climate and we did not need those ugly blobs on the top of our houses, we don’t have flat tops on our houses either traditionally.
But all those ac’s caused global warming and so the problem spread to holland and apparently even Scandinavia. We used to have only a few hot days a year now it is weeks.

Yeah but i doubt you get lows of -5 most years either in the winter, and snow is that weird stuff that happens to other people.

Mines a portable stick a pipe out the window job, a bit bulky for my small room, (okay a lot bulky), but no flat roof or big thing on top of the house required.

A neighbor attached one on the front of his house clearly visibly from the street and he had to remove it after people complained. It was an eyesore.

Yeah, given the information in CD that Fae can ignore thresholds when coming in for benevolent purposes, I think it probably was Mab -- specifically, Mab acting in Lea's place (since she was preventing Lea from fulfilling her obligations), and coming in from the NN through Lea's garden.
As for the Calvin and Hobbes book, I prefer the theory that it was a subtle hint about the hobs that were about to show up. Since they're Winter, that also points to Mab, IMO. (And against future-Harry, since it didn't actually end up being a helpful hint, and future-Harry would have known that and not bothered.)
