funny you should say that we were just remarking last night that with all the cooler and cloudier days this year we have no needed the shade cloth on our greenhouse or SW facing house windows...w aug just around the corner and the sun angle already waning they won't be coming out....less work for me!!!Guy in Shorts wrote:Have not yet installed the window A/C units.

The power of information and the measured effect on sleep under varying conditions is amazing. Would hate to see the negative addition of my rotating shift schedule added to the mix. Best to wait until I retire before I get plugged into a computer. Love the fact that you can measure better sleep as the weather cools and ski season approaches. Not so happy with the beer buzz change to the numbers.madhatter wrote:funny you should say that we were just remarking last night that with all the cooler and cloudier days this year we have no needed the shade cloth on our greenhouse or SW facing house windows...w aug just around the corner and the sun angle already waning they won't be coming out....less work for me!!!Guy in Shorts wrote:Have not yet installed the window A/C units.

I've also noticed a correlation between cool crisp nights and sleep quality/resting heart rate...
on the more humid/warmer nights my heart rate tends to be less steady and slightly higher ( I use the fitbit surge).... on the really cool and dry nights it tends to drop off and stay right around 40bpm or so...one particular night last week it went as low as 37bpm ( the only time I've seen that, I've seen 38 regularly)it also calculates a resting heart rate which for me today is 43bpm...
some of the other cool things I like about the fitbit surge on top of heart rate monitor and sleep tracking is the gps tracking and ability to sync w strava...hoping to see it sync w ski trax and trace snow soon too...it also can make a bluetooth connection to my phone and display text messages, alert me to phone calls etc...it can also control music on my phone though I've never used that feature other than to test it out...there's even a digital bathroom scale that can be integrated with it to provide more accurate calorie tracking...
I've also noticed that alcohol even just a couple beers which is about all I ever drink anyway tends to raise my sleeping heart rate by 10bpm over the entire evening and the pattern is always much more up and down vs the normal sleep of falling off and remaining relatively steady...

It's the Skistice.
