Yes, every night of the year. Blowing on me or near me, depending upon the temperature. I like the air being circulated and the steady droning noise from the fan. Wow, I think that's cool that so many people are in the same place as I am regarding the soft, white noise. I also find the sound from the air con set to "heat" during winter, or the steady drum of rain on the tin roof to be equally... effective.

As I said on the other thread, I prefer to have a fan going, unless the room is too chilly. I can tolerate a slightly higher temp if there is moving air. The low level white noise is soothing. Now, that tin roof thing? I have a friend who has metal roofing, and hearing the rain at her house is a bit disconcerting, like the storm is stronger. We both live in Tornado Alley - the Midwest USA - and are a little more serious when there are storms.

We both live in Tornado Alley - the Midwest USA - and are a little more serious when there are storms. I like sleeping in a cool room, but during cold weather, I like getting up to a warmer house, to lessen the impact of certain aches and pains I've accrued due to a misspent youth...  So as you can tell, it's a bit of a juggling exercise. Apparently, I live in the driest state on the driest continent, so rain isn't exactly an everyday occurrence. However, we do get our fair share of strong winds and storms. A few years ago, one storm brought down several electricity pylons of the lattice tower design up north. As a result, the entire state went dark, in some parts for several days. Luckily, I got power back after a day and a bit.
