    Southern Italy peaks at 32C and low humidity. That is absolutely nowhere close to the heat we get in much of the US.

    US houses are most definitely built with insulation in mind. That point is somehow more laughable than you not knowing your own temps.

    Literally every part of your claim is incorrect.

      Southern Italy peaked at over 50° C this year, and do you really think a country completely surrounded by an ocean has low humidity?

        Yes, comparatively.

        Also I assure you no one is making building code choices based on one year.

      Dude, I’m in Tuscany which is nowhere near the peaks of southern Italy.

      This is what awaits me
