A sleeping porch is a covered, often screened-in outdoor space attached to a house where people would sleep during warm weather. They were especially popular before air conditioning became common, offering a cool, breezy alternative to the hot indoors.

Also 100% this is part of the economic issue that led people to vote red - even when the GOP has NO plans to fix the issue
