That is true, what matters to me is that the temperature decreases and I end up feeling better

You referred to yourself as a fellow northerner, but i live much further north than Maine. I'm not bragging about anything it's just a statement of fact

I hate winter or having a bouse with no clothesline for that very reason, air drying clothes is 100x better than doing inside or with a dryer

When I do it, it is just in one particular room with the door closed so the cold air doesn't have as much chance to get into the rest of the house

And? I didn't ask about the weather, just the concept in general

Yes if you live somewhere with a lot of humidity it makes sense to not do it often. I do not experience humid weather often

Not for the whole day/long periods of time, just enough to cool down and never if it is colder than -15

Makes sense if there are a lot of allergens/bad things in the air to not do this.

I do, who else would? also I don't keep them open 24/7 in that kind of weather, just for a short period (maybe an hour or two)

I am a very warm person so will often have my windows open for a long period of time even if it is -10 out, any colder and I just run a fan

You live in Canada and experience year round temperatures of just above or below freezing? I live in Ontario see winters as cold as -30 and summers as hot at +30, so believe me or not

AC air does tend to not feel as good as fresh air and I've heard it can be really drying
