Were in the midst of a heat spell-yesterday was 100+ (our normal warm days are 75-80 with ocean breeze). 11:30 its 95 in the shade already. I just opened the camper still 87. Its ok 3-4 hours until as Sleepy mentioned starts soaking in- then it climbs above outside air temp. Takes longer to gid rid of the heat, late evenings are the worst. Only time we've used the dinette bed was trying to escape the heat in the overhead.
We have a cover on camper when stored-which helps, -really hot I just open the door-to keep the temps from climbing to crazy levels. Probably need to drain/flush the water tank. Never had a can explode (does happen) but water tank is where I see high heat issue, it and the lines with our water supply have 'bloomed' before if water is old. -candles etc other heat sensitive items we keep bagged.
Were going to Calaveras Big Trees for a few-will be warm but nice-then on to the Columbia Diggins Tent Town 1852 event. Been a few years since we attended-last few days here reminding us why. But its fun-looking forward to it. Heat not so much...price of admission
