The power has gone out. No generator. Temperature 98 degrees. HELP!!

Answer 1

lots of ice water! pat yourself down with cool washclothes, or if you have a spray bottle handy, mist yourself with cool water

Answer 2

You don't.

You just take your clothes off and enjoy the heat.

Answer 3

wear as little as possible an sleep with only a sheet

Answer 4

Back In The Old Days ( before Electric ) down on the Plantations we'd sit on the side porch ( away from the sun ) and drink cool drinks, fan ourselves with newspapers and go swimming in the back yard..or just turn the hose on ....

Today, I'd say " Rent A Generator " So You Can Operate Several Fans, at least.

Answer 5

fill up a bathtub or the likes with ice and lie in it  if you had a fan with a battery it works like an air conditioner

Answer 6

Run cold tap water on your wrists. It helps to cool your body temperature a little.
