Hold on to your butts, comrades. We're about to get a preview of 2050. I just checked the live data, and the area off the coast of South America that is the index water for ENSO is 9° F above average in places. This is going to be a wild year.

If you have tilt & turn windows your only option is a mini split AC.
If you have other windows, midea has u-shaped window A/C units which may help with some window designs that typical US style window units wouldn't accommodate.
Be aware with these (don't get me wrong they are wonderfully effective and efficient, especially if you foam around the minimal openings properly) you absolutely have to tilt them properly and clean them monthly if you don't want legionnaire's disease or other mold growth.
