I didn’t even get the usual evening breeze last two nights to cool my room down. I had to keep a wet sheet over my legs and I still felt hot. I’ve got foil on my windows and one of those car windscreen mylar things but since it’s supposed to be flush with the windows and I have those annoying upvc monstrosities I wonder if it’s not just trapping heat instead. For some reason the hot air really wants to stay in my room. Even with the door open and a through current to the front of the house which is north facing. There’s a big difference in heat the moment you step through my doorway 😭😭
If you have multiple levels (e.g. a house) open a window downstairs and one upstairs. The rising hot air inside will draw in cooler air from outside, but the hot air needs to be able to escape. If you power that with a fan, that’s good too.

Aim a fan in/out a window to increase airflow.
Aim a fan at yourself. That’ll increase wind chill.
